The firm's DensiShield has an effective bandwidth of 10Gbit per channel over cabling lengths of up to 10-metres.

DensiShield provides IT professionals with four-channel capacity and can therefore deliver an aggregate bandwidth of 40Gbit per second.

He added that the DensiShield system meets 10Gbit performance levels at distances typically used in within-rack or rack-to-rack cabling.

FCI operates globally in 30 countries and recorded sales worth €1.3 billion (£1.2 billion) in 2007.

The firm, which was founded in 1988 by Framatome, now employs more than 14,200 people and supplies the automotive, telecommunications, micropackaging, consumer electronics, data storage, industrial and medical sectors with a wide range connectors. ADNFCR-1186-ID-18970804-ADNFCR
