Cable Assemblies: Ethernet

Since its standardization in 1983, Ethernet has become a truly global technology in every industry in the world. This set of network protocols forms the foundation of both the Internet as a whole and of every local computer network in operation today, making possible technologies ranging from network-enabled consumer electronics to advanced network routers and the connectivity backbones of virtually every modern communications network on Earth.

L-com has pioneered the manufacturing of high quality Ethernet cables for over a quarter century, from the early flat silver satin 10-Base-T cables to today’s most advanced 10 Gigabit cable assemblies. This proven track record of experience, quality and performance has cemented our place as the preferred Ethernet cable vendor of choice among many Fortune 100 and 500 companies as well as government agencies and facilities.

With over 10,000 off-the-shelf Ethernet cables to choose from, we are confident that we have every application covered. From Industrial Ethernet to IT infrastructure, L-com has an Ethernet cabling solution that will meet your needs and exceed your expectations.

Solutions

IT Infrastructure

Data centers are perhaps the most critical components of businesses today. As companies increasingly automate their processes and systems, they rely on data center uptime and dependable capacity in order to maximize profits and build market share. When network failure can quickly translate into the potential loss of millions of dollars, today’s data centers must be designed for optimum redundancy and resiliency while supporting today’s high speed, bandwidth-intensive technologies.

L-com provides a complete range of highly durable Ethernet cabling solutions for IT infrastructure and data center networking needs. Our cables include 90- and 45-degree angled Ethernet designs for dense patching applications, Category 5e/6 and 6a cables for 10/100/100 Mbps and 10 Gigabit high speed networking, and plenum and riser rated assemblies engineered to comply with stringent building codes. We can also custom manufacture Ethernet cables to meet your specific design requirements.

OEM

For original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), a basic off-the-shelf Ethernet cable may not always be adequate for inclusion in a newly designed product or system. For small and large scale projects that demand unique or specific Ethernet cabling solutions, L-com serves many of the world’s top OEMs with a wide variety of custom Ethernet connectivity options.

L-com owns our own manufacturing processes, an advantage that enables us to quickly develop and provide cable prototypes for use in proof-of-concept testing. Our ISO 9001:2008-compliant manufacturing facilities utilize state-of-the-art assembly and test equipment, and are capable of production runs of any size required by our OEM customers.

Systems Integration

System integrators depend on high quality connectivity products in nearly every aspect of their businesses. Performance and durability – as well as off-the-shelf availability and next day shipping - are key requirements for network system integrators and vital to the success of their projects. Tested and certified to meet high performance Cat5e/6/6a standards, L-com cables are designed to deliver true and dependable operational quality in even the toughest project environments.
