CommScope Unveils SYSTIMAX 2.0 Portfolio Improvements

Commscope.

CLAREMONT, N.C.—Network connectivity solution provider CommScope has launched SYSTIMAX 2.0. The enhancements to the building and data center connectivity portfolio are designed to provide customers with the latest structured cabling solutions and support to meet the most demanding network infrastructure challenges, the company said. 

“With the SYSTIMAX 2.0 enhancements, CommScope is expanding its support for future customer needs with continuous technology innovation, world-class performance and reliability, application assurance and unrivaled global support,” stated Luc Adriaenssens, vice president of enterprise product management and R&D, CommScope. “We will be evolving the SYSTIMAX portfolio of products and services to ensure we continue to meet those needs.”

CommScope noted that for nearly 40 years, SYSTIMAX solutions have led the trajectory of tomorrow's network technologies, supporting customers’ network evolution within a fluid business environment. As the trusted solution in structured cabling, SYSTIMAX technology has been synonymous with exceeding the standards of enterprise connectivity, continuously evolving to redefine how building, data center and campus networks operate, the company said. 

SYSTIMAX 2.0 enhancements are designed to carry that legacy forward, leveraging CommScope’s rich history of performance and reliability in copper, fiber and network intelligence.

The upgraded portfolio includes two new innovative solutions 

The GigaSPEED XL5. Customers increasingly need to support higher-demand devices on their twisted-pair Ethernet networks. The GigaSPEED XL5 technology is CommScope’s new multi-patented solution for customers needing to step up from 1 Gbps copper before making a commitment to 10 Gbps copper. The GigaSPEED XL5 solution supports applications such as multigigabit backhaul connectivity for advanced wireless access points. This new solution supports 2.5/5 gigabit Ethernet applications in 4-connector, 100m channels with bundled cables, while maintaining the ease of installation of our GigaSPEED XL solution.

VisiPORT. CommScope’s new VisiPORT solution is an automated copper and fiber port status and capacity monitoring system that improves efficiency, reduces errors and removes the need for ongoing database maintenance. Using real-time data to lead decision-making reduces errors; the VisiPORT solution detects and transmits events upon the insertion or removal of a plug and can provide alerts on unexpected or unapproved patching activity. The solution is easy to deploy and provides instantaneous port status and port capacity information with the ability to set user defined thresholds for action. The VisiPORT solution is comprised of intelligent copper panels and fiber shelves with built-in port sensors and system controllers. The solution leverages the port-sensing technology that is foundational to CommScope’s comprehensive imVision Automated Infrastructure Management (AIM) solution. In a fast-changing environment, data center and facilities managers need simple real-time insights to improve efficiency and reduce connection errors. The SYSTIMAX VisiPORT solution meets this need. 

The company has also enhanced SYSTIMAX Assurance with 360-degree customer support from 80+ Systems Engineering teams around the world and more than 10,000 SYSTIMAX-certified partners in 130 countries. 

The SYSTIMAX Assurance program now includes 24/7 live premium technical support and a host of other benefits all backed by our 25-Year Product Extended Warranty and Application Assurance.
