For enterprise networks with high speed requirements and long lifetime expectations, Tyco Electronics offers 2 premium High Performance AMP NETCONNECT systems. Both offer Class F and Class FA performance and great flexibility and scalability.

The AMP-TWIST-7AS System is a high-performing cabling system designed to support the current Cat 7 and forthcoming Cat 7A performance standards.
The capabilities of this system gives cabling infrastructure designers more options compared with Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A systems, such as cost effective cable-sharing and support of future generation network performance.
The current 10G performance debate demonstrates the power of this solution perfectly - Cat 7 cabling system performance, first defined in 2002, exceeds all current requirements for 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

How it works

  • The Jack termination process is as straightforward and as fast as a standard UTP jack. The cable is prepared with the SL Termination Tool which has a special blade for cutting PiMF cables.
  • This allows removing of the 4 foils in one single step.
  • After dressing the wires into the tool lacing fixture, the two connector parts are located into the tool and in one motion, the pairs are terminated and cut. Total
Installation time is about 1-2 minutes.
