Hubbell Premise Wiring:  [Back]

The Next Speed in Structured Cabling

Network transmission rates have increased 100 fold in the past five years; from the 10 Mbps and 16 Mbps of 10BASE-T and Token Ring, to the emerging gigabit-per-second standard of 1000BASE-T. Networking equipment has been forced to keep up and more powerful applications taking advantage of the increased processing speed. MPEG2 full-motion video and 3D graphic emulation both require rapid processing speed and large amounts of bandwidth. As more of these technologies are developed, the focus will be on the ability of cabling systems to support them.

 

 

Hubbell Premise Wiring has a tadition of producing standards compliant UTP connecting hardware and optical fiber products of the highest quality. As a member of many of the cabling industry's standards bodies, Hubbell helps to shape the standards that govern our industry. Our participation on the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) committees and the ATM Forum permits us to develop products that meet the next generation of standards and network technologies before they are officially adopted.
