R&M is set to exhibit its Cat. 6A and Class EA copper cabling solutions as well as the Distributed Frame HD cable management cabinet as part of its data center offerings. Also, given that space-savings is a mega-trend in data center design, the company will also highlight its 'High Density Panel' and the 'Raised Floor' solutions. With the Raised Floor Box, cabling connections can be conveniently shifted to under the floor thereby simplifying connections layout and maximizing space utilization.
In addition, R&M has been responsible for a number of high profile FTTH deployments across the Middle East and will also demonstrate its range of FTTH solutions. These include Street Cabinet, Splice Closure Single Circuit Management (SCM) and Optical Distribution Frame solutions which are used to organize fiber-optic cable connections.

The cabling specialist has been aggressively expanding its footprint in the region and now targets establishing itself as the leading data center cabling solutions provider by 2013. "Thanks to large investments, we have increased the quality and efficiency of service in the region. Our newly opened patch cord assembly facility along with our 'Fiber Lab' located in our regional MEA headquarters in Dubai gives speed and flexibility to our customers. With these milestones, we are now better equipped to serve a broader range of customers in the region and we believe that GITEX will help us to meet potential customers as well as new sales channel partners who can help us to drive our business in the region," says Jean-Pierre Labry, Executive Vice President of R&M Middle East and Africa.
R&M's innovative modular end-to-end copper and fiber solutions are a good fit for the type of large scale infrastructure projects now being undertaken in the Middle East.
