Corning Receives Intel Certification for its Thunderbolt(TM) Optical Cables
11 Setembro 2013 - 6:00PM
Optical Cables by Corning launched as the first Thunderbolt
(TM) all-optical fiber cables
CORNING, N.Y., SEPTEMBER 11,
2013 - Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW) today
announced at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, that
its optical cables have been Thunderbolt certified by Intel
Corporation. Thunderbolt(TM) Optical Cables by Corning are the
first all-optical fiber cables for the Thunderbolt community.
Compatible with both Intel's Thunderbolt and
Thunderbolt 2 computer and peripheral connectivity protocols,
Thunderbolt Optical Cables by Corning have successfully undergone a
rigorous certification process that ensures they provide users with
an optimal experience. In the coming weeks, Corning will make
available varying lengths starting at 10 meters.
Thunderbolt Optical Cables by Corning are designed
specifically for Thunderbolt technology and allow users to easily
manage the demands of today's high-bandwidth applications. The
electrically isolated, noise-reducing cables are up to 50 percent
smaller in diameter and 80 percent lighter than comparable copper
Thunderbolt cables.
"Based on Intel's Thunderbolt protocol, Corning is
providing a fast, innovative cabling solution designed for
data-intensive connectivity," said Bernhard Deutsch, vice
president, Product Line Management, Optical Connectivity Solutions,
Corning Telecommunications. "Thunderbolt Optical Cables by Corning
empower users to quickly access and move data between devices at
distances copper cables cannot."
"Thunderbolt transforms the way users connect
devices to their PCs, dramatically increasing data transfer rates,"
said Jason Ziller, director, Thunderbolt Marketing, Intel
Corporation. "Corning has built upon its proven innovation track
record to develop a key addition to the Thunderbolt ecosystem.
Corning's new optical fiber cables should help accelerate
Thunderbolt adoption by enabling faster media capture, editing, and
backup at distances beyond 10 meters."
Thunderbolt Optical Cables by Corning will be
available in the coming months through distributors, select
resellers, and online. Details on how to purchase the cables can be
found on the "Where To Buy" section of the Optical Cables by
Corning website, www.OpticalCablesByCorning.com.
Additionally, IDF attendees will be able to view
live demonstrations related to the speed, flexibility and
durability of Thunderbolt Optical Cables by Corning. These
demonstrations can be seen at the Optical Cables by Corning booth
#180, the Intel Advanced Technology Zone and in the IDF Thunderbolt
community.
