Dax Networks has launched its Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution, based on 10G
Ethernet on Copper. Dax's Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution is priced at Rs
26,990/- and is targeted at enterprise, metropolitan and wide area networks.

Dax's Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution supports the operation of 10GBASE-T
over 100 metres. The 10GBASE-T uses 4-pair transmission and the aggregate data
rate of 10 Gb/s is achieved by transmitting 2.5 Gb/s over each pair. Hybrids and
cancellers are used to facilitate simultaneous transmission in both directions
(full duplex). Dax's Smart 10G Cat-6A Cabling Solution is qualified for
frequencies up to 500 MHz.

Commenting on the solution, Subashini Prabhakar, Chief Technology Manager,
Dax Networks said, "We believe that this cabling solution which supports 10
Gigabit Ethernet will become a technology of choice in the structured cabling
space. The development of 10GBASE-T and support over Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
cabling, initially in data centers but ultimately to the desktop, will bring a
whole world of opportunity for support of bandwidth intensive
applications."

Dax's Smart 10G Cat-6A cabling solution comes with a 3-year carry-in warranty
and online support to its customers. When installed by a Dax Certified
Installer, it is backed by a 20-year warranty. Dax plans to market this Smart
10G Cat-6 Cabling Solution through its strong channel spread across the country.
