Tyco Electronics has in troduced AMP NetconnectXG fiber system. The new fiber
system has been termed as a "one-fiber-fits-all" solution by the
company. It provides customers with a migration path from 10 Mbps up to 10 Gbps
utilizing the same multimode optical fiber cabling.
Comprised of a complete line of AMP/Pirelli XG fiber cables and AMP
Netcon-nectXG connectors and cable assemblies, the new 10Gbps standards-based XG
fiber system provides protection from re-cabling network infrastructures to
support bandwidth upgrades.
This fiber system supports 10 Gbps applications running over 300-meter
distance of structured cabling. This new optical fiber cable has been
"laser-optimized" at 850nm so that 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit
fiber channel applications can be fully supported.

"The new optical fiber cable provided with the AMP Netcon-nectXG Fiber
System delivers a laser bandwidth of 2,000 MHz at 850 nanometers," explains
Sitara-maiah, Senior Manager-System Engineering, Net-connectSolutions Division.
This not only complies with the optical fiber performance requirements of the
newest 10 Gbps laser-based standards, but also supports legacy systems using
light-emitting diodes or LEDs.
