Punch down and earth strap for connector
The RJ-LnxxT IP67 rated, sealed, industrial RJ-45 connectors, available in the UK from Aerco, are now available with IDC punch down and earth strap terminations.
Convertors marry disparate optical standards
A new range of connector convertors on show at ECOC 2002 next week are claimed offer unparalleled levels of performance and reliability.
According to WiFi-Plus President, Dennis Broderick: "This is the antenna of the future, and solves a major problem for radio and chip providers that must be able to have a single device broadcast in multiple frequencies".
"This antenna will allow the wireless infrastructure of tomorrow to be built today, as it will not require replacement as new frequencies are added to radio standards, either licensed or unlicensed".
"The antenna will perform as well at 2.4GHz as at 6GHz or anywhere in between".
"Providers can deploy this antenna today for Wi-Fi applications and feel confident in that their investment can be easily adapted to future standards".
"We know of no other antenna that can make this claim", concludes Broderick.
In addition, this is one of the company's MP or multi- polarised antennas that has tremendous obstruction penetrating qualities in obstructed NLOS operations due to its ability to use reflected and refracted signals that most other antennas see as noise.
The MP stands for multi- polarized, multi-path and multi-plane, use of signal.
WiFi-Plus is the first to achieve threedimensional capture in a passive antenna design.
The company believes the new technology will improve connectivity at any frequency to which it is applied.
