New guide outlines trunking systems

Specifiers and contractors requiring a Cat 6 compliant cable containment system have the choice of 10 market-leading solutions from Marshall-Tufflex, all of which are outlined in a new quick-reference guide.

The Marshall-Tufflex ‘Cat 6 Compliant Trunking Systems’ guide is quick and easy to use with images, measurements, cable capacities and bend radius details for each of the profiles, including unique Odyssey all-curved profile, Twin 165 (which provides greater space for data cabling), to extra high capacity Sterling XL. For each the brochure gives cable capacities, dimensions, bend radius control (25mm or 50mm), a short description and images.

The British manufacturer believes it has a well-designed, hard-wearing and installer-friendly solution for almost any job requiring Cat 6 perimeter trunking able to handle large amounts of data and power cabling. Its systems have features including 50mm power/data separation and steel screening dividers to BS EN 50174-2, copper spray screening with no loss of compartment capacity, adjustable depth data boxes and Cat 6 data outlets. All systems are made of 100% recyclable materials.

"Accommodating the increasing performance levels of current and future data networks is critical to the success of many projects,” said Jeremy Dodge, Head of Marketing and Technical Services.

“Our Cat 6 compliant solutions not only meet the needs of today but also offer the flexibility for reconfiguration tomorrow, making them a wise choice. With such a wide range to select from we are confident there’s a Marshall-Tufflex Cat 6 solution for most applications.”
