PREMISES CABLING

Premises cabling is undergoing major changes:

- new cathegories appear (cat.6, cat.7)

- optical fiber begins to be used (FTTx)

- data rates increase

- new applications appear

Are copper cables really future-proof?



It's time that nominal data rates on copper drammatically increased and glass optical fiber is becoming somewhat common, but...

Is there a better way?

It's easy... it's plastic fiber



What if:

- Cross-talking and RF noise halve actual data rate?
You just accept it,
      or
you use plastic fiber cables, because it always transmits at full speed (100 Mbps).

- Copper cables can't be laid in conduits by electric wires?
You install new conduits
      or
you use a plastic fiber cable, because it's immune to EMI (electromagnetic intereferences) and can be side-by-side with electric cables.

- Silica optical fiber is too hard to install?
You call a trained technicians,
      or
you use plastic fiber, because everyone can easily install it.

- You must cable a building?
You choose either yesterday's cat.5, today's cat.6 or tomorrow's cat.7,
      or
you use plastic fiber, because it's future-proof and will accomodate your increasing requirements.

America and Japan, at the forefront of cabling technologies, are increasingly using plastic fiber.
