Berk-Tek has been a leading manufacturer of more than 100 different network copper and fiber optic cable products. The company has led in the development of high-performance and enhanced fiber optic and UTP cables designed to transport high-speed data and voice transmissions.
With 1,500 feet of cable in each box, versus standard 1,000 ft boxes, smartPAK delivers the convenience and ease of use of a traditional pull-box with the additional benefits of 50% more cable. A 1,500 ft box virtually eliminates cable scrap when installing standards compliant 90 meter horizontal cable runs or even “typical“ 45 meter runs.

With a rugged, armored design delivering 10 to 13 times the crush resistance of standard fiber optic cable, Armor-Tek interlocked armor fiber cables are ideal for campus & building backbones, data centers and industrial applications.There is also a more practical use for these well engineered fiber cables.
Armor-Tek fiber cables can also provide outstanding flexibility for modifications, alterations and changes, (MACs) as well as relocations, pathway changes or design modifications after the cable has been pulled, something conduit cannot easily accommodate.

Everything IP
IP convergence is among us. Every day, more and more devices are being connected to and powered by the network. In the enterprise environment especially, organizations are seeing the benefits of converging once-disparate building systems onto their IP networks to fully leverage the efficiency and cost savings benefits of Everything IP.
The Emergence of the uLAN
When we think of the core Local Area Network (LAN), we think of devices that have traditionally been Ethernet-enabled – desktop computers, Voice-over-IP (VoIP) phones and wireless access points. But with increasing system convergence, we are now seeing the emergence of a Utility LAN (uLAN). Like the traditional LAN, the uLAN is an interconnected set of devices that share data within the enterprise. But the uLAN is comprised of non-traditional Ethernet-enabled devices – lighting, HVAC, security, and AV systems – that are now being connected and powered by the IP network.
