Copper Cable & Connectivity Products

Estimates are that 70-90% of today's data center cabling is copper and, as a result, selection of the optimal copper channel solution is critical to maintaining "Zerodowntime" in these mission-critical applications. NetClear GT3 horizontal channel solutions for data centers are engineered to significantly surpass all requirements of Category 6 applications and optimize capabilities for future applications. The NetClear GT3 channel provides industry leading dynamic performance, backed by strong application warranties. NetClear GT3 guarantees installed static channel performance 4 dB above all Category 6 crosstalk requirements and 3dB above all Category 6 return loss requirements for standard designs/installations with field verification by NetClear approved handheld channel testers.

Clarity® advanced copper connectivity Solutions represent an evolutionary advancement in UTP and FTP Category 6 and Category 5e connectivity. ETL verified to Category 6 and 5e component standards, Clarity components utilize center tuned connector technology to provide significant elevation of channel performance that is field measurable. Clarity solutions include patch panels, patch cords, TracJack® and Series II® workstation modules, and 110 cross-connect systems.

LANmark UTP cables are the highest performing UTP cables in the industry, supporting current and next generation data center networking applications with ease. LANmark-1000 premium Category 6 cabling solutions are designed for robust Gigabit Ethernet support. And the new GUARDmark-6 FTP cables are the first independently verified Category 6 FTP cables available in North America.

Ortronics iTRACS-Ready™ system pairs iTRACS™ administration software with Ortronics Clarity iTRACS-Ready products to give a clear picture of network connectivity by automatically mapping all physical links. This system improves network security and service by providing real-time MAC detection, alert and documentation.

Ortronics Clarity® angled patch panels are built around the elevated performance of Clarity 5e and Clarity 6. These high-density patch panels utilize a unique recessed angle design to help direct cords more easily to vertical rack or cabinet cable management within a lower profile. This design provides an improved alternative for data center applications that don't offer rack space for horizontal management.
