TERA

TERA is the only one in the standard EN50173 standard, fully shielded connector system for S / FTP Cable Category 7 and Category 7a, not the RJ -45 standard IEC 60603 equivalent. It is available as one-, two - and four-pair variant. In the latest version of this plug-in system supports a bandwidth of > 1.2 GHz transmission speeds of > 10 Gbit / s

It was developed and patented by the " Siemon Company". In 2003 it was standardized by the IEC.

Parallel to TERA there with a Cat- 7 GG45 system whose sockets are backward compatible with RJ -45. It is standardized under IEC -60603-7-7 ( Cat 7), respectively, IEC -60603-7-71 ( Cat -7A ), IEEE 11801:2002, Amendment 2, 2008.

Multimedia over Twisted Pair

A significant advantage of the system Cat7A " Tera " based on the principle of the pair of continuous shielding of the individual pairs in the form of a chamber system. The continuation of the shielding up to pair level thus enables a completely integrated and einzelgeschirmtes system in conjunction with (S) F / FTP Twisted pair cables.

Due to the process chamber concept, it is possible for up to four data services, such as analog telephony Class C or Class D two data services, such as to use 100Base- T at the same time with only one cable and a connector. The paired shielding further allows for reduced crosstalk to use different services in parallel in a terminal module. The common term for this technology is cable sharing.

Furthermore, the Tera offers the option of analog CATV services over twisted - pair wiring with transmission frequencies up to 862 MHz to transmit low loss over the structured cabling.

Efficiency

The Tera meets the high requirements of Class FA and thus automatically includes all lower classes such as the newly introduced class with an EA. 10 Gigabit Ethernet transmissions according to 10GBase- T and the theoretical feasibility of 40 Gigabit Ethernet via the Tera are therefore safe. For transfers of > = 1 GHz has both the ACR and the NEXT sufficient reserves for hochbandbreitige applications. By design as shielded system plays " alien crosstalk ", the crosstalk between adjacent ports and cables, and does not matter, as described in the cabling standard not to be additionally detected by measurement.

Economy

Tera allowed as a system solution, depending on the application and use that savings of up to 50 percent of the time required for transmission components such as Verlegkabel, connecting cable, outlets and patch fields.

Due to the multiple use of a port, the system costs compared to traditional cabling by up to 30 percent, depending upon the services enjoyed, reduce.

This applies primarily to the use of 10 or 100 Mbps and analog telephony applications. As Gigabit Ethernet, here's a eight-wire contact is needed, this is no longer true. Users who cabling structured and use VoIP instead of traditional telephone systems, however, can affect their overall system costs on the wiring side by Tera positive.

By theoretically reduce the actual required quantities of cables and connection units subsystem costs can also be dimensioned smaller as cable trays, ducts, etc. usually.

Furthermore, the Tera system offers the user additional safety and reliability in operation. This is due to the fact that a mixture with patch cables of different quality, as it is often to visit with RJ45 patch cables, is not possible and instead only the system associated patch cables can be used.
