BOSTON, Mass. -- (February 11,1992) -- Alpha Wire will be demonstrating its newly introduced network management product line here at NETWORLD in Booth #3915. Alpha's Network Management products provide users with an integrated wiring system featuring cable, connectors and tools to support Ethernet, Arcnet, Token Ring and AppleTalk networks. Ethernet products feature unshielded twisted pair (UTP), transceiver and "thick" and "thin" coaxial cables. Each cable type is supported by a corresponding connector that provides the user with a method of terminating or interconnecting each of these cables. Token Ring products include Type 1, Type 2, Type 3, Type 6 and Type 9, available in plenum and non-plenum versions. Other products include the IBM type data connector, D-Subminiature connectors, modular plugs and jack, coax connectors and wall plates. Arcnet products include UTP, RG-62 and the corresponding connectors and tooling. Appletalk products include shielded and unshielded twisted pair cables and the corresponding connectors and tooling. The Network Management products meet or exceed industry standards such as IEEE 802.3, 802.5 and EIA/TIA 568 to facilitate system installation, reconfiguration and maintenance. All Alpha connectors are completely compatible with recommended Alpha cables for total system reliability. "Alpha has been working together with our core group of over 2,000 distributors to develop the appropriate products and marketing strategies for these network management products. We are very pleased with the outcome of this development and look forward to providing end users with the quality wire products they expect from Alpha," said Grant McLennan, president of Alpha Wire. Alpha also offers a wide range of computer interconnect cables for RS 232 applications that fit most computer systems and process control equipment. Some cables offer capacitance as low as 12.5 pF/ft. As a leading supplier of wire, cable, tubing and accessories, Alpha Wire Corporation has been serving customers for more than 60 years.
