Corning Cable Systems to Highlight Leadership in LAN, Industrial and Data Center Applications at Cisco Live 2010

Hickory, NC, June 28, 2010 – Corning Cable Systems LLC, part of Corning Incorporated’s (NYSE:GLW) Telecommunications segment, will continue to highlight leadership in LAN, industrial and data center applications at Cisco Live 2010, June 28 to July 1, in Las Vegas.   

In its interactive exhibit (booth #2049), Corning Cable Systems will showcase a variety of optical fiber cabling solutions for enterprise applications, which most recently features Pretium EDGE™ Solutions for data center applications. Designed and developed with extensive end-user input, Pretium EDGE Solutions address the needs of ease-of-use, scalability, termination density and technology future-proofing, while offering excellent total cost of ownership. Pretium EDGE Solutions allow for up to 35 percent faster deployment; enable up to 25 percent faster moves, adds and changes (MACs); and offer up to 100 percent more density than traditional preterminated solutions.

The exhibit will also include the following:

  • UniCam® Pretium®-Performance Connectors, which offer industry-leading optical performance in a fast, easy field-termination solution.
  • Plug & Play™ AnyLAN™ Systems for both indoor and outdoor applications, featuring a multimode or single-mode optical fiber cable pre-installed with network access points at customer-specified intervals and a tethered, environmentally hardened MT connector. Once distance measurements for network access point locations are obtained, the preterminated system is manufactured and tested. The entire system is then packed and shipped to the customer on a cable reel for immediate deployment in the desired indoor or outdoor application.
  • Plug & Play Universal Systems, preterminated optical fiber cabling systems that streamline the process of deploying an optical network infrastructure in the data center environment. The Plug & Play Universal Systems Integrated Trunk Module (ITM), a factory-terminated MTP® trunk in a single-wide Plug & Play Universal Systems module, available in 40, 80, 120, 160 and 200 ft options, and simple to deploy and redeploy.

Corning Cable Systems Pretium EDGE Solutions and Plug & Play Universal Systems are 40/100G ready and capable of reliably supporting transmission speeds up to 100G with laser-optimized 50 µm multimode fiber (OM3/OM4).
