American Access Technologies Reports Its Zone Cabling Products Comply With New Telecommunications Industry Association Standard KEYSTONE HEIGHTS, Fla., June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- American Access Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:AATK) is pleased to announce that the Telecommunications Industry Association ("TIA") has published their new Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers (TIA-942). The publication of the new standard gives official recognition to the concept and application of zone cabling within the Data Center itself. Joe McGuire, Chief Financial Officer of American Access, stated, "Our review of the new TIA standard indicates that all American Access passive zone enclosures are in compliance." Mr. McGuire went on to discuss the importance of this new standard to American Access. He stated, "Data centers house the computing, data storage and networking equipment that provide the most vital information and communications services to the organization. A data center contains numerous devices that must be interconnected within the data center before their services can be provided throughout the enterprise. The TIA standards provide for zone distribution areas within the data center to organize the data center into a logical, manageable network. Therefore, our American Access zone cabling products, which we provide for use in the office environment, can also be used to structure the data center for maximum efficiency. "Network engineers, architects and others responsible for designing and specifying telecommunications networks now have the assurance that there are TIA standards covering not only their zone cabling configurations, but also the zone enclosure products utilized in zone cabling networks and data centers. "We anticipate that zone cabling will continue to benefit from the move towards the open office environment, and advances in telecommunications technologies and network economics will increase zone cabling in both existing and new construction. We believe that zone cabling is a superior approach for growing open office configurations or wherever frequent moves, additions and changes of telecommunications services are a factor because 'zone cabling' of the workspace reduces overall labor and material costs for network installation and facilitates moves, adds, changes and upgrades for the network installations."
