Excel Exhibiting at Data Centre World in Paris

Excel Networking offers a vast range of products that have been designed specifically with data centre spaces in mind

Excel Networking Solutions, the copper and optical cabling infrastructure provider, is excited to announce that they will be exhibiting at this year’s Data Centre World exhibition in Paris, France this November.

Data Centre World, the largest exhibition dedicated to data centre experts, will be held at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles on 15th and 16th November 2023. Visitors will be able to discover the latest technologies and the power of digital transformation in the sphere of the data centre industry, with opportunities to explore the innovative solutions available to maximise the potential of a data centre installation.

A typical data centre installation has extensive requirements for seamless high-density design, high speed connectivity and infrastructure security. Excel Networking offers a vast range of products that have been designed specifically with data centre spaces in mind, with choices across the copper, fibre, racks, power and containment product lines, all of which will be showcased at stand G100 throughout the exhibition.

Speaking about the event, Hinda Mourali, Excel Networking’s Sales Manager for France commented, “We are delighted to have the opportunity to showcase the Excel portfolio at this year’s Data Centre World. Our team of specialists will be available throughout the two days to present our range of products, including an exciting range of new Environ racks.”

Excel Networking are planning to expand their comprehensive range of Environ racks and cabinets. The Data Centre Rack (DCR Series) will be officially launched in Q1 2024. The chassis of this rack is based on the successful Server Rack Series and will offer several key features that will make them ideal for Data Centre applications. The rack will be available in 42U, 47U and 52U heights, and will be the showcase of the Excel stand at Data Centre World, loaded with a full suite of Excel’s copper and optical fibre patching solutions.

Hinda continued, “The Excel brand launched in 1997 and since then has enjoyed formidable growth across the world, now available in over 80 countries with 21% market share in the UK. Excel introduced their plastic free packaging in 2019 as part of a wider sustainability effort, demonstrating their industry-leading mindset and environmentally conscious ethos alongside their phenomenal growth.”

Hinda concluded, “We hope to see many of you at our stand during the exhibition, and we look forward to discussing your upcoming projects with you to see how Excel’s complete, trusted solution could help.”

There will be a range of Excel literature and giveaways available throughout the event, as well as an exciting competition with a chance to win a trip to Centreparcs.

Excel Wins Award for a Second Year Running

Excel Networking Solutions, the copper and optical cabling infrastructure provider, has been voted as Cabling Supplier of the Year for a second year running in the highly respected Network Computing Awards 2012.

The Network Computing Awards, which took place on 22nd March in London, have been running for 6 years and are particularly meaningful as they are voted for by the readers of Network Computing magazine - the people who use the products every day. They were set up to recognise the companies, products and services in the industry that have most impressed the readers.

Excel beat off stiff competition from Brand-Rex (runners up), TE Connectivity (formerly Krone), Belden, Nexans, Panduit and Systimax to take the award for a second year.

Andrew Percival, Managing Director, says, “Winning Cabling Supplier of the Year for a second year is a great achievement and we’re very thankful for all those that voted for us.” Andrew continued “Back in October 2011 we decided to give the Excel brand a complete re-fresh which not only improved the look and feel of the system but has really helped to position Excel as a leading player in the market place. Winning accolades such as the Network Computing award helps to reinforce this message and further demonstrates the considerable strength of the system.”

The award was collected on the evening by the Directors of Sales for the North and South, Ian Irving and John Twidell respectively.

Excel Launches Two New Patch Panels

Excel Networking Solutions, the copper and optical cabling infrastructure provider, has launched two new Patch Panels to its already extensive range. The new products include the Excel 24 Port 0.5U Keystone Patch Panel and the Excel 24 Port 1U Keystone V Patch Panel

The Excel 24 Port 0.5U Keystone Patch Panel delivers a high density offering with the benefit of a single row of keystone jacks. The single row of jacks means that the installation is straight forward and allows an individual jack to be removed if required. As the panel is only 0.5U in height it allows, by using two panels together, the ability to present 48 keystone jacks in 1U of rack space. Using two 0.5U panels ensures that the jacks are all aligned the correct way up.

Most 48 Port 1U panels require the bottom row of jacks to be mounted upside down.
The panel is supplied with a cable management bar and an earthing kit as standard.

The Excel 24 Port 1U Keystone V Patch Panel allows standard Excel keystone jacks to be presented in an angled patch panel configuration. The patch panel is designed to accept all of the Excel unscreened and screened standard keystone jacks from the Category 5e, 6 & 6A portfolios. This panel includes a rear cable manager to allow the cable to be dressed into the panel neatly and securely. The V shape of the panel presents the jacks at an angle to the front of the cabinet that reduces the strain on the jack that results from the patch lead. The patch lead is naturally routed to the cabinet/frame cable management reducing the requirement for rack mounted cable management bars. Earth bonding leads are supplied fitted to enable grounding if required.

Commenting on the new panels, Simon Robinson, Product Marketing Manager said "We are constantly listening to customer feedback and reviewing the Excel range to ensure that we have the right breadth of products, quality and competitive price point."

Simon continued "Excel already has an extensive range of panels to suit every requirement and these new models, utilising the Excel keystone jacks, provide even more choice to our customer base."

The Excel 24Port 0.5U Keystone Patch Panel is available from stock immediately, the Excel 24 Port 1U Keystone V Patch Panel will be available from the end of March 2012.
