Intelligent cable management system provides a complete solution
3 July 2002
Interconnection
Structured cabling manufacturer, Molex Premise Networks, has launched a Category 6 version of its 'realtime' patching system. This 'intelligent' connectivity system provides IT managers with the ability to manage and monitor the physical network layer and associated IT hardware.
Now available for Cat 5e and Cat 6 networks, the company says the realtime system is the only monitoring system of its kind which can be retrofitted to legacy cabling systems, as well as new installations. This allows users to migrate to intelligent connectivity management throughout their organisations, regardless of the age and tenure of their existing infrastructure.
The Real Time Patching System comprises intelligent patch panels, patch cords, cable and physical layer management hardware and software.
Configuration of the system is simple and integral self-learning port identification reduces set-up time. Scalability of the system is unlimited and can be managed locally, remotely, or via Web connection, intended to support multimedia connectivity including copper, fibre, cross connect and coaxial connections. Additional management software expands the capability of the system.
