| OFS Offers RoHS-Compliant Products OFS offers premises cables and optical connectivity products that are fully RoHS compliant. Also known as Directive 2002/95/EC, the RoHS initiative originated in the European Union and restricts the use of six hazardous materials in electrical and electronic products, a class that includes optical cables, connectors and apparatus. All applicable products sold in the EU market starting July 1, 2006 must be RoHS compliant. Similar regulations will be coming into effect in China in the near future. OFS also offers an extensive line of low smoke zero halogen (LSOH) premises cordage and cable products that are compliant not only with the RoHS directive but also with IEC requirements for smoke density and acid gas generation during combustion. As a dedicated corporate citizen, OFS is fully committed to protecting the environment and safety of its people, its customers, and the communities where it operates. The company will continue to offer premises cables and connectivity products that serve specific market applications, or meet certain customers' precise requirements. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Networking News :: home page |
