    Leviton Manufacturing Background

    Founded in 1906 in Brooklyn, NY,celebrating 100 years of success!

    Isadore Leviton (pictured) was a partnerwith Thomas Edison.

    Levitons first product was gas mantle tipsfor gas lamps when the city of New Yorkinstalled gas lamps.

    Industrial, commercial, OEM and

    residential markets The average American home contains

    more than 100 Leviton devices

    In a major American city lit up at night,about 90% of the lights you see areconnected to some kind of Leviton device

    Key physical layer interfaces (PHY) and media

    10GBASE-SR (short range) designed to support

    short distances over deployed multi-mode fiber cabling, it

    has a range of between 26m - 550m depending on the

    bandwidth of the glass cores. Uses spectral wavelength

    at 850nm and typically VCSELs.

    10GBASE-CX4 Copper interface using InfiniBand

    CX4 cables 8 pair twinaxial for short-reach (15m)applications). This is currently the lowest-cost per port

    interface at the expense of transmission range using

    copper.

    10GBASE-LX4 uses wavelength division multiplexing

    to support ranges of between 240 m and 300 m overdeployed multi-mode cabling. Also supports 10 km over

    single-mode fiber . Uses wavelength of 1310 nm.

    10GBASE-LR (long range) this standard supports distances ofup to 10 km over single-mode fiber (using 1310 nm).

    10GBASE-ER (extended range) this standard supportsdistances up to 40 km over single-mode fiber (using 1550 nm).Recently several manufacturers have introduced 80-km-range ERpluggable interfaces.

    10GBASE-LRM [1] this standard will support distances up to 220m 10 Gbit/s on FDDI-grade multi-mode cable. Various combinationsof offset and center launch cables on both ends of the link. Verycomplex.

    10GBASE-SW , 10GBASE-LW and 10GBASE-EW These varieties

    use the WAN PHY, designed to interoperate with OC-192 / STM-64SDH/SONET equipment using a light-weight SDH/SONET frame.They correspond at the physical layer to 10GBASE-SR, 10GBASE-LR and 10GBASE-ER respectively, and hence use the same types offiber and support the same distances.

    Why 10G over Copper?

    Economics

    Cost per Port - Copper Switches & Network Interface Cards (NICs) are typically

    less expensive when compared to fiber Lower installation costs

    Ethernet copper scalability (10/100/1G/10G) 3/10 rule

    Ethernet copper backwards compatibility (10/100/1G/10G)

    Copper Benefits:

    Familiarity

    8P8C (RJ45) is universally accepted as data connector

    Ease of Use

    Copper installations more common than optical fiber

    Fiber terminations require extra training / experience / equipment

    Fiber-to-the-desk has not gained widespread enterprise deployment due tohigh TCO

    Crosstalk Review (NEXT, FEXT, etc)

    In the past, crosstalk was concentrated within single

    cable jacket. IEEE and TIA worked together to solve this problem.

    Solved with cable/jack design and electronics.

    Electronics can equalize signal.

    Alien Crosstalk (AXT)

    The Challenges: Alien Crosstalk (AXT)

    Need to account for crosstalk from cable to cable. No possible way to equalize 7 signals.

    The higher frequencies and HIGH power required for 10Ghave introduced a new problem.

    Each component design alone must solve this, no electronic

    solution. AXT can occur in the cable, connector, patch panel and

    patch cord.

    Component ratings will be critical!!!

    What about Screened Twisted Pair

    50 Confidential

    What about Screened Twisted Pair

    Great for eliminating Alien Crosstalk. High memory retention of cable from reel. Bend radius must be 8 times cables O.D.

    Major problem with todays cable pathways

    All sides of building must be bonded to Maingrounding busbar. Very few installers properly trained on installing

    shielded systems.

    Installation recommendations Cat.6/6A

    Cable must be conditioned above 32 degrees F for 48 hours prior toinstallation.

    Do not use excessive force when pulling cable. The maximum pull-force guideline for a 4-pair horizontal UTP should not exceed 110N(25lbf). Meeting this guideline avoids stretching conductors duringinstallation and the associated transmission degradation.

    The minimum bend radius should not exceed 4 times the cable

    outside diameter (O.D.) The O.D. of Cat 6A 100 ohm, balanced UTPcable is .32 in. (4 x .32 = 1.28 in. bend radius).

    Do not stretch, stress, tightly coil, bend or crimp the workstationcables when placing into backboxes or furniture raceway.

    In MC, IC or HC, use appropriate horizontal cable management for

    patch cords on front of patch panels. Also, use appropriate cablemanagement bar(s) for support of terminated horizontal cable. Do not use cable ties due to the potential for over cinching of cable

    bundles which can alter the cable geometry and degrade the systemcabling performance.

    Installation recommendations cont

    Use hook and loop fasteners for bundling of horizontal cables. Ensure that cables are not bundled for at least 20 feet in cross connect and

    placed gently in cable trays or cable runways in a loose or non-combed way. Store cable slack in an extended loop configuration to alleviate cable stress.

    Cable slack in bundled loops or traditional service loops to provide additionalcable length in closets have been shown to degrade cabling performance andare not recommended

    Do not allow telecommunication cables to run parallel with Limited Class 1circuits, unless they are separated by a minimum of 2 inches. 12 or greaterfor higher powered circuits.

    Testing of copper conductors for length, delay skew, wire map, InsertionLoss, Return Loss, NEXT, PS-NEXT, ELFEXT (ACRF),PS-ELFEXT, ACR, PS-ACR at all frequencies up to 500 MHz for category 6Acables.

    Extreme care must be taken to not nick any of the copper conductors whenremoving jacket. Use rip cord to remove jacket.

    Maintain twists as close as possible to the point of termination. Utilize Pair Separation Towers on connector to separate pairs and untwistingof copper pairs should not exceed

    For Cat 6A connectors, the Cone of Silence (COS) shall beinstalled to mitigate Alien Crosstalk to insignificant levels.

    Manage the cable bundles in a symmetrical orientation. Forexample, in a 48-port patch panel, distribute 24 cables to the verticalcable management on the left side of the rack and 24 cables to thevertical cable management on the right side of the rack.

    Provide a 5 foot extended service loop at the workstation cable atthe top of each conduit stub-up (arranged in an elongated loop) inthe accessible ceiling or where it is possible to be concealed

    No slack inside the faceplate back-box if using standard squareboxes in construction.

    Consider using solid bottom cable runway/trays for high densityapplications where more than 150 cables will be placed together.
