Corning Cable Systems LLC, part of Corning Incorporated�s
(NYSE:GLW) Telecommunications segment, introduces its LANscape�
Pretium� Evolved-Density, Growth-Enabled (EDGE) Solutions,
high-density preterminated optical cabling solutions for the data
center environment.
Pretium EDGE Solutions allow for up to 35 percent faster
deployment; enable up to 25 percent faster moves, adds and changes
(MACs); and offer up to 100 percent more density than traditional
preterminated solutions.
Enabled by Corning� ClearCurve� multimode fiber, Pretium EDGE
Solutions feature preterminated and tested multi-fiber assemblies,
or trunks, with a minimum bend radius as small as five times the
outer diameter of the cable, compared to 10 times in traditional
trunks. Pretium EDGE Solutions trunks are an average of 30 percent
smaller than traditional trunks.
The cable can be more tightly routed around corners and bends,
and extra slack can be coiled without causing attenuation that may
adversely impact system performance. Pretium EDGE Solutions
interconnect cables offer a minimum bend radius of up to eight
times the outer diameter, meaning more cables can be routed and
stored in the same amount of space without interfering with initial
installation or MACs.
Pretium EDGE Solutions Housings are available in both 1U and 4U
sizes and mount in 19-inch racks or cabinets. When combined with
Pretium EDGE Solutions trunks and jumpers, they provide an
industry-leading LC connector termination density of 576 fibers
within a single 4U housing. Pretium EDGE Solutions Housings contain
12 individually sliding trays that can accommodate as many as four
12-fiber LC modules or four 24-fiber MTP� Connector panels per
tray. The trays allow for improved finger access of connectors and
offer individual access without compromising the optical
connectivity of other ports.
Modules and harnesses conveniently load into Pretium EDGE
Solutions hardware from either the front or the rear, and correct
fiber polarity is guaranteed throughout the systems� link. With
modules offering an insertion loss of 0.5 dB, multiple connections
in a network link are allowed when deploying a TIA-942-compliant
system.
With Corning Cable Systems LANscape Pretium EDGE Solutions,
there are only four steps required to install the optical network:
pull the cable assembly, mount the hardware, plug in the
connectors, and test the system.
LANscape Pretium Solutions products are packaged in up to 60
percent recycled material, and the packaging is 100 percent
recyclable.
Multimode fibers have many modes of light traveling through the
core of the fiber. These modes have a tendency to leak from the
core under tight bending conditions. The resulting additional
signal loss can cause system downtime or reduced network
efficiency. Corning ClearCurve multimode fiber is designed to
confine these modes within the fiber�s core; the result is a
significantly stronger optical signal and a reduced risk of network
downtime under situations such as tight bends and patch cords
pinched in housing doors.
Data center requirements are constantly changing and evolving,
and a network is not useful if it cannot manage today's
requirements as well as what is to come. Pretium EDGE Solutions
meet the requirements of 100G Ethernet when necessary, and its
universally wired components provide a simple upgrade path between
2-fiber and parallel optic applications. Additionally, modular
components allow the network to change as often as the
requirements.
