The AMP NETCONNECT develops, manufactures, and supplies a comprehensive range of communications infrastructure systems and products for customer-owned networks in government, education, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, residential, power, technology and other markets. Having established itself as the preeminent provider of commercial premises structured cabling systems for optical fiber and twisted-pair copper technologies, AMP NETCONNECT’s product portfolio is included a complete line of infrastructure management solutions, data center solutions, 10 Gigabit solutions secure network solutions and even upper-level asset management solutions. The full spectrum of industry-leading products combines with superior customer service, making the AMP NETCONNECT business unit a single-source system provider to meet the wide range of communications infrastructure needs for local and global customers with local support and global capabilities.

Same as other well-known brand name, AMP NETCONNECT also encountered the problems of counterfeit products which we have already established a process to handle this issue. In order to help customers ensure the products that they purchase are the genuine one, we would like to offer our “Genuine On-Line Check” which will roughly tell you whether the products on your hand are the genuine one.

Remark :
At this stage, the “Genuine On-Line Check” is only available for Cat5E Cable PN 6-219590-2, 6-57826-2


Why Do We Need Genuine AMP NETCONNECT UTP Category 5e Copper Cable ?

Description
Genuine AMP Netconnect
Counterfeit Cable
Note
 1. Average Copper      Diameter
Norminal 0.5 mm
Smaller
Up to TIA/EIA 568B standard : the UTP Category 5e cable must have the 24 AWG wire copper (0.5mm) to get the good performance for transfer the data.
 2. Material (Copper)
New and Pure Copper
Used / Recycle Copper, Somes go with metal plate with copper
Impurity Copper (recycle) will create high resistance, high attenuation which will effect directly to performance of the network. It will seriously cause when using with the distance over 30 meters.
 3. Number of Twisted
        (Orange Pair)           
16 times / 102mm
12 times / 102mm
The twisting of the cable reduces electrical radio frequency interference which causes crosstalk. Also, the wires are insulated with a plastic (FEP) that has low optical dispersion, that is, the dielectric constant of the plastic does not depend greatly on frequency. Special attention also has to be paid to minimizing impedance mismatches at connection points.
 4. Length of Cable
     Box
305 meters
< 305 meters
Purchase couterfeit cable will cost more since the length of couterfeit cable is less than 305 meter. The average length of counterfeit is about 10% shorter than the actual.
 5. Technical to
    Application Guarantee
Zero Bit Error Rate for Gigabit Ethernet
No
Zero Bit Error Rate for Gigabit Ethernet is the technology to transfer the data with zero bit error on application 1000Mbps up to standard
 6. Jacket Material
Fire retardant rate with UL listed
PVC, same grade with normal electrical cable
Cable jacket PVC have no fire safety standard. NEC Article 800-3(b)1 defines the CM grade cable for general purpose such as patch cord and horizontal wiring in the same floor (CM) or defines the CMR grade cable for riser application, wiring across floor in the vertical shaft, the flame occurs on one floor will not spread to the next upper floor.
 7. Third Party Test
By INTERTEK / ETL SEMKO
No
The AMP NETCONNECT Category 5e cable was checked by INTERTEK / ETL SEMKO third party on every parameter to confirm AMP NETCONNECT UTP Category 5e excess TIA/EIA 568B standard
 8. Environment
RoHS Compliant
No
As part of Tyco Electronics’ ongoing commitment to designing and manufacturing for a global economy, we are actively pursuing compliance to the European Union’s (EU) Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) legislation. On elements of the cable will not have any : Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Hexavalent Chromium, Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB), Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE)
 9. Performance
Able to run Gigabit Ethernet
No
Counterfeit cable will make our network work with low speed, short distance and unstable. Fail with long length / Fail with heavy data transfer.

Please only purchase products from AMP NETCONNECT Authorized Distributors and their dealers in order to ensure that the products that you purchase are genuine.
