Dax Launches Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution

Dax Networks has launched its Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution, based on 10G Ethernet on Copper.

According to the release, Dax’s Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution supports the operation of 10GBASE-T over 100 metres. The 10GBASE-T uses 4-pair transmission and the aggregate data rate of 10 Gb/s is achieved by transmitting 2.5 Gb/s over each pair. Hybrids and cancellers are used to facilitate simultaneous transmission in both directions (full duplex). Dax’s Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution is qualified for frequencies up to 500 MHz.

Subashini Prabhakar, chief technology manager, Dax Networks said, “We believe that this Cabling Solution which supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet will become a technology of choice in the Structured Cabling space. The development of 10GBASE-T and support over Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling, initially in datacentres but ultimately to the desktop, will bring a whole new world of opportunity for support of bandwidth intensive applications.”
