Introduction Why do you need enhanced Integrated Solutions? Today s information systems are often built around a data network, which is increasingly required to support a wide variety of applications. Current network development is focussing on Quality of Service, which is required to enable different types of information to be transported. The goal is to avoid congestion from becoming a critical problem for delay-sensitive applications such as voice and video. LANmark is a range of enhanced performance cabling solutions which utilises fully matched components to optimise : Perfor formance To guarantee headroom even under worst case end-to-end channel configurations Quality of TransmissionT To reduce Bit Error Rate and maximise throughput Value for Money by providing efficiency and reliability combined with room for growth

It is specifically designed to support the requirements for tomorrow s protocols. Yet is fully backwards compatible with today s needs. It is the recommended cable for all forthcoming installations. The C 3 (Central Crosstalk Cancellation) construction from Nexans has been developed to ensure that the performance of our cables is above Category 6 requirements at all times. The F 2 TP version features a unique dual foil shield providing superior EMC performance to single foil constructions and dramatically improved ease and speed of installation. LANmark-6 is independently verified to exceed the requirements of the ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 proposals.

When combined with a LANmark Cat 6 Patchcord the LANmark-6 Snap-in connector exceeds the requirements of the Cat6/Class E draft (ISO/IEC/WG3 N568) with considerable headroom, even using worst case 4-connector channel configurations. As such it supports all data applications defined for Cat5, Cat5e and Cat6, such as 10baseT, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, 155 ATM etc. The unique cross (C 3 ) technology in the connector ensures the high performance of all parameters. The LANmark-6 Snap-in connector is a toolless connector which is designed to enable all 8 wires to be terminated quickly without the need for a punch-down tool, allowing fast and reliable installation.

GG 45, ready for the Multi-Gigabit LAN generation Nexans Cabling Solutions stays at the forefront of technological development. It even takes the lead in developing the next generation cat 7 standard, making it fully compatible with the existing Cat6. Both ClassD/Cat5e and ClassE/Cat6 are based on RJ45 connectivity. The Nexans developed GG45 interface meets the key industry requirement of full backward compatibility. The GG45 connectivity range will allow for the next generation ClassF/Cat7 connectivity to achieve full interoperability with the installed RJ45 base. Today, more than 90% of the installed base is RJ45 class D based. Current Gigabit applications are already stretching the capacity of this installed base. Fast transition to ClassE/Cat6 infrastructures is therefore necessary to ensure error free transmission. Network capacity is stretched by ever increasing network traffic and overall file sizes : how far can we go... Nexans GG45 and ClassF/Cat7 standards will allow critical elements of the installed passive and active equipment base to be maintained. At the same time it guarantees to fulfill its commitments to offer future proof generations of high speed copper based network cabling.
