    Future-proof network infrastructure for buildings

    Reichle & De-Massari(R&M) is tackling the expansion of data networks for “Next Generation WiFi”, as detailed in a press release. Accordingly, the global cabling specialist has added a hybrid concept to its range of cabling systems.

    The solution from R&M combines the existing LAN connection with fiber optics for data and power transmission. The higher transmission capacities mean that additional network infrastructures can be implemented.

    The aim is to achieve nationwide availability of WiFi 7 and 5G technologies. Although these technologies multiply transmission rates, they exceed the capacity of existing copper-based LAN cabling. “Anyone who wants to use WiFi 7 and 5G in buildings in the near future needs a practicable and future-proof cabling solution,” it says.

    According to the press release, the hybrid solution based on copper cabling is integrated into the modified building, floor and ceiling cabling (digital ceiling) and thus networks the next-generation access points via fiber optics. “At the same time, the antennas receive their power via the LAN cabling, which eliminates the need for an additional separate power supply,” it says.

    R&M launches new splice closure

    R&M has expanded its range with a high-density type of SYNO splice sleeve. The new SYNO S-500 splice closure has twice the splicing capacity of the standard types, writes the globally active specialist for data and communication networks from the Zurich Oberland in a statement. The splice closure, which is designed for the expansion of hybrid fibre optic infrastructures, can be used to cable single fibres and ribbon fibres simultaneously.

    The SYNO S-500 is equipped with eight entries for standard round cables, ribbon cables and microproducts. “Single fibre splices, ribbon fibre splices and splitters can be placed next to each other on the splice carriers,” R&M explains. Due to the resealable gel seal of the sleeve, the cabling can be retrofitted or changed at any time.

    According to the manufacturer, the SYNO S-500 can be used for overhead and underground cabling, and especially in regions where the infrastructures for fibre optic lines to the house are to be expanded quickly and prepared for future applications. As an additional service, R&M offers “customer-specific pre-assembly”.
