Pretium EDGE solutions offer benefits such as up to 35 percent faster deployment; up to 25 percent faster Moves, Additions, and Changes (MACs); and up to 100 percent higher density than traditional pre-terminated solutions.

In Pretium EDGE pre-terminated solutions and backbone cables, Corning® ClearCurve® multimode fiber optic cable allows for a minimum bend radius of five times the outside diameter (compared to ten times the outside diameter of traditional backbone cables). Furthermore, Pretium EDGE backbone cables are, on average, 30 percent smaller than traditional backbone cables.
The cable can be routed more tightly around corners and bends, and excess cable can be stored without causing attenuation that could impact system performance. Pretium EDGE interconnect cables offer a minimal bend radius, allowing them to be routed and stored in the same space without interfering with the initial installation or MAC.

The Pretium EDGE solution enclosures, available in 1U and 4U heights for 19-inch rack mounting, combined with Pretium EDGE trunk cables and patch cords, provide the highest fiber density on the market (576 fibers terminated with LC connectors in a 4U enclosure).
The Pretium EDGE models contain twelve individually removable trays where up to four 12-fiber LC modules or four 24-fiber panels with MTP® connectors can be installed per tray. The trays allow easy, individual access to the connectors without affecting the optical connectivity of the other ports.
The modules and harnesses can be installed in the Pretium EDGE hardware from the front or rear. The system ensures correct fiber polarity throughout the entire link. With a loss of only 0.5 dB in the modules, multiple connections can be made along the link when deploying a TIA-942 compliant system.
With these LANscape Pretium EDGE solutions, only four steps are needed to install the optical network: lay the pre-terminated cable, mount the hardware, plug in the connectors, and test the system. LANscape® Pretium® solution products are packaged in up to 60% recycled material, and the packaging itself is 100% recyclable.

In multimode fibers, many modes of light travel through the fiber core. These modes tend to escape the core under tight bend conditions. As a result, additional loss can cause a drop or decrease in system performance. Corning® ClearCurve® multimode fiber is designed to confine these modes within the core. The result is a stronger optical signal and a reduced risk of system failure under tight bend conditions and when patch cords are pinched in enclosure doors.
Data center requirements are constantly evolving and changing; a network is useless if it cannot be managed to meet current and future needs. Pretium EDGE solutions meet 100G Ethernet requirements. Their Universal Cabling components provide a simple way to upgrade from duplex links to parallel optical links. Furthermore, the modular components allow for frequent network changes as needed.
