OPTiCAL SYSTEMS Brand-Rex is committed to a future in optical cabling and truly believes in the benefits of optical cables for the future requirement of both LAn and WAn networks. Why? Here are some of the benefits of Brand-Rex Optical Systems. • Transmission Security – As optical fibre emits no electromagnetic energy there is no opportunity to intercept transmissions remotely. • Bandwidth – Optical fibre has a much greater data capacity than copper, carrying more data further.
O pt i cal F i bre R a n ge CABLE SELECTION: When selecting the correct cable for any installation the first question will be of fibre type. This is dependent upon the transmission distance and the protocol being adopted. Further on in this section is a key to transmission distances on the main fibre types for 1Gb and 10 Gb Ethernet applications. This key is repeated on each page as a reference. With the choice of fibre type complete, the selection of cable construction must be made.
C abled O pt i cal F i bre S pec i f i cat i o n s The tables below describe the standard fibres supplied by Brand-Rex that comply with or exceed ISO/IEC 11801 and EN50173-1 and EN50173-2 requirements, for use in high speed LAN, MAN, WAN data and telecom networks. Specific Fibre Types to customer specification are available on request.
