T ECHNOLOGY C OMPARISON - H IGHBAND VS 110 T YPE FEATURE KRONE 110 EXPLANATION HIGHBAND TYPE Bandwidth NEXT Loss @ NEXT Loss @ Higher headroom capacity allows you to (patched) 100 MHz = >63dB 100 MHz = <49dB install a network that is capable of handling emerging technologies. Contact Silver Tin Silver has an electrical conductance that plating is 6.9 times greater than tin. IDC contact 45º 90º By placing contacts at 45º angles across the positioning axis of the wire, far less stress is placed on the wire at point of termination. Centre port Yes No HIGHBAND allows you test/monitor access access to a hardwired circuit. Jumper & Yes No The HIGHBAND module allows you to patch jumper and patch on the one module. 110 systems allows one or the other, NOT BOTH. Patch-By- Yes No Useful for temporary moves and changes. Exception This feature allows you to leave jumpers in place and patch to the new temporary location. Number of 2 1 HIGHBAND guarantees you two conductors conductor terminations per slot. per slot Insertion Low High The high insertion force needed force to terminate the 110 type blocks can cause stress on the wire. Stranded Yes No Contact angle and reduced wire stress conductor allows reliable stranded conductor termination termination. page fourteen page fifteen FEATURE KRONE RJ Cross EXPLANATION HIGHBAND 8 Connect Low cost Yes No RJ cross connection requires 19” rack mounting system mounting. Depending on the size of the installation this can be quite expensive. Jumper & patch Yes No RJ allows for patch only. Patch-By-Exception Yes No The flexibility of the HIGHBAND module allows either jumpering or patching. Test access point Yes No The HIGHBAND centre port allows for test access. Single pair Yes No With RJ when one wire is connected all are administration connected and pairs cannot be managed. HIGHBAND allows for single, double and four pair management. Work access Yes No With the HIGHBAND module all from front connections are made from the front which of module makes cable termination much easier. Extremely high Yes No HIGHBAND has far superior transmission transmission NEXT Loss @ NEXT Loss @ performance.
