What's New? NEXTGEN® BRAND FIBER OPTIC CABLES General Cable has re-engineered its NextGen® Brand line of 50 micron multimode fiber to include ClearCurve® glass technology from Corning® Incorporated. ClearCurve OM2, OM3 and OM4 ultra-bendable multimode optical fiber will now come standard in all of General Cable's NextGen fiber optic cables with BI, BE, BL and BM glass types. ClearCurve's improved bending performance will provide greater reliability in NextGen fiber solutions compared to current options, allowing for increased installation margins for the end user. These cables are designed specifically for more challenging data center and enterprise applications where tight-bend situations in Local Area Network (LAN) and data center environments may exist. General Cable's NextGen cables featuring ClearCurve multimode fiber will experience minimal increases in attenuation even when exposed to severe bending requirements. N E X T G E N ® 17 F R E E ® General Cable offers halogen-free NextGen® Brand ETL-Listed Riser (CMR) cable. By removing halogens, the cable has reduced toxicity, resulting in a truly "green" cable that is less toxic and more environmentally friendly.
