Nexans’ Data Communications Competence Centre (DCCC) has recently challenged the canadian pharmacy cialis pfizer performance boundaries of Nexans pre-terminated optical fibre assemblies, using a variety of test configurations and platforms. The results demonstrate that Nexans’ OM3 and OM4 cables consistently exceed the IEEE Standard for both levitra hiccups 40G and 100G Ethernet by a substantial margin.
“The DCCC results are particularly noteworthy, not only for the distances achieved, but also due to the utilisation of frame error rate testing instead of the more commonly used bit error rate testing,” says Baudouin Bareel, cost of levitra without a prescription Director Nexans Cabling Technical. “Our frame error tests run hundreds of times longer than the industry requirements and our cables continue to exceed the industry standards. Using multiple connection points is also important because in real-world applications our customers need to know that our cable can perform reliably and dependably in a variety of configurations.”
During the 40G frame error rate testing using Avago 40G QSFP+ transceivers, the LANmark-OF OM3 standard fibre achieved 202 meters, which is double the reach specified by the IEEE standard. Even more impressive were the results of the OM4 tests with a 9-connector channel where the pre-terminated optical fibre assemblies successfully transmitted beyond 600 meters, uk propecia sales more than four times the reach with more than four times the connectors specified by the IEEE. During the 100G frame testing with a 7-connector channel, a distance reach of 500m was successfully achieved.
Commenting on the results, Tarek Helmy, Region Director – Gulf & Middle East, Nexans Cabling Solutions says, “We are very happy with the results of these tests, which proves that Nexans’ cables consistently exceed the IEEE Standard for both 40G and 100G Ethernet by a huge margin. We plan to share these results with our clients in the Middle-East so they can be rest assured that Nexans’ products not only exceed expectations in terms of quality but also in its reach capabilities as compared to other competitive products in its range.”
“Obviously, we are delighted with the results,” says Joost Grillaert, Product Manager Fibre Products Nexans Cabling Solutions. “The extended reach capabilities clearly demonstrate what can be achieved when you combine our outstanding quality optical cable and connectors in support of next generation communications technologies.”
“These types of studies are part of the value that Nexans Cabling Solutions brings to the customer beyond simply the components themselves,” says Martin Rossbach, Director Nexans Product Marketing and New Developments. “The fact that our Data Communication Competence Centre successfully transmitted both 40G and 100G Ethernet to distances beyond those defined by the standard with our OM3 Pre-Term products was very positive. But more importantly, the stellar results of our OM4 grade fibre, when combined with the Avago transceivers, create a new benchmark in the industry and accentuate the superiority of our OM4 cable assemblies for higher speed Ethernet applications.”
