Tech Forum Hamburg focuses on the developments in the area of copper and fiber optics who are forcing not only new standards but also new products in terms of both cabling and connectors, which means that planners, installers and operators need a lot of up-to-date know-how. For the standards, this applies to the series EN 50173 and 50174, for the products, among other things, all types of copper compounds according to Category 7 and 7A and 8,8.1,8.2, as well as in the fiber optic environment for balancing the advantages of OM4 and OM5.
