It is the largest city in Nevada and the center of one of the fastest-growing urban areas in the United States. , May 22-24. The event is being held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center The Mandalay Bay Convention Center is one of the largest privately owned and operated convention centers in the world. The 1 million square foot facility is owned by MGM Mirage. It is attached to the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino and adjacent to the Mandalay Bay Events Center. where the company's solutions will be displayed at booth #2056. TrueNet products and cabling systems are designed and engineered to maximize the uptime of data centers and local area networks (LANs) within enterprises around the world. In addition, ADC is participating in the Ethernet Alliance The Ethernet Alliance includes component suppliers, industry experts, university and government professionals who formed a consortium to promote industry awareness, acceptance and advancement of Ethernet technology and products based on existing and emerging IEEE 802 Ethernet Booth #2265 where members will showcase the latest in Ethernet technologies. ADC Solutions "Engineered for Uptime[TM]" ADC's TrueNet System is an end-to-end, integrated portfolio of high-performance copper and fiber cable, connectivity and cable management solutions from the data center to the desktop. One of the most critical measures for data centers is network availability. The most sophisticated data centers seek Tier IV reliability of 99.995%(*) network availability. However, all of the redundancy and advanced power and cooling measures available are irrelevant if the cable, connectivity and cable management systems are inferior and lead to network downtime. ADC has developed innovative solutions designed to optimize data centers based on its more than 50 years of proven experience in providing infrastructure for the world's most elite class of data networks. "ADCs technology, practices, and solutions are at work today in enterprise data centers globally," said Jaxon Lang, vice president of product management, structured cabling Structured Cabling is defined as building or campus telecommunications cabling infrastructure that consists of a number of standardized smaller elements (hence structured) called subsystems. for ADC. "With TrueNet, customers have an infrastructure that can facilitate up to three generations of active equipment, and provide the reliability they need for their high-value data." Other leading-edge infrastructure technologies that will be featured at the ADC booth include several new products: * Angled CopperTen[TM] (10Gig) Patch Panel A group of sockets used to connect incoming and outgoing lines in communications and electronic systems. Patch panels allow for manually wiring the connections with small cables (patch cords), rather than automatic switching. : Installation-friendly design allows for wire termination in a flat orientation, while a quick and simple adjustment to angle left/right promotes superior cable management and increases density by eliminating horizontal cable managers. The composite material composite material or composite, any material made from at least two discrete substances, such as concrete. Many materials are produced as composites, such as the fiberglass-reinforced plastics used for automobile bodies and boat hulls, but the and staggered port design mitigates alien crosstalk See crosstalk. without sacrificing termination durability or port density. ADC's exclusive laser-tuned modular jacks reduce variability and enhance performance. * CopperTen 20- and CopperTen 8-Pair Termination Blocks: ADC's highest performing termination block (10 Gigabit Ethernet An Ethernet standard that transmits at 1 Gbps. Used mostly to connect high-end workstations and servers as well as for network backbones, Gigabit Ethernet transmits full duplex from point to point using switches and half duplex in a shared environment (CSMA/CD) using a hub. over UTP UTP (uridine triphosphate): see uracil. (Unshielded Twisted Pair) See twisted pair. UTP - unshielded twisted pair to a full 100 meters) offers versatility not possible with patch panels. The CopperTen 20-pair and 8-pair blocks' unique center port eliminates the need to remove cables for testing, and because patch cords are "temporary", the system saves thousands of dollars over traditional patched solutions because port-to-port patch cords are not required. Installations are hardwired providing the cleanest, most secure, most reliable and highest performing Category 6a system available. * Upgradeable PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design Patch Panel: This modular plug-and-play panel (available in Category 6 and Category 6a versions) tracks and maintains moves, adds and changes. The composite panel design mitigates alien crosstalk for 10G applications, and is available with intelligent patching capability built-in, or in a passive version that can be upgraded at anytime without requiring wire re-termination. Free Educational Luncheon ADC, Force10 Networks and Anixter are hosting a free luncheon seminar on Wednesday, May 23, from 12:30 - 2:00 p.m. in the South Convention Center, South Seas Ballroom, Level 3 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. Speakers will discuss strategies and technologies at work today that enable reliable, scalable and high-bandwidth data centers and networks worldwide. Space is limited and on a first come-first serve basis.
