Beta LaserMike receives Silver Certificate

Ethem Erdas, product manager for wire and cable applications at Beta LaserMike, has received the Silver Certificate award from the Wire Association International (WAI). The prestigious award was given for Erdas’ technical paper entitled “An in-process SRL predictor system for data cable manufacturing.” The award was presented during the Interwire 2011 Trade Exposition and WAI’s 81st Annual Convention in Atlanta in May. The paper illustrates the important role an in-process structural return loss (SRL) predictor system plays in data communication and the coaxial cable manufacturing process. It covers various prediction and analysis methods currently in use in the industry and, using actual field data recorded by SRL Pro predictor, the paper illustrates the time and cost savings realized by various manufacturers.
