INFRALAN® fiber optic links receive GHMT certification

INFRALAN® fiber optic components meet GHMT Type Approval requirements. INFRALAN® has received certifications for OM3 and OM4 fiber optic cabling from the Gesellschaft für Hochfrequenzmesstechnik (GHMT). This means that the fiber optic components are among the first in the industry to have been tested by an independent external testing laboratory.

The certification attests to the perfect compatibility and function of the cables, couplings and pigtails in a 2-connector permanent link with a length of 205 meters (OM3) or 155 meters (OM4). It offers maximum security to both the end user and the installer. Certification for single-mode cabling links is also currently being worked on.

The certification of the fiber-optic lines in accordance with the GHMT Type Approval complements the certification of the INFRALAN® copper cabling links, which we have had for many years. As with the copper data networks, INFRALAN® fiber optic systems installed by certified INFRALAN® partners are backed by a 25-year system warranty. In case of warranty, INFRALAN® covers the costs for the replacement of defective components upon proof that they are the cause of the fault.
