FLORIDA, N.Y., Dec. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Remee Wire & Cable, a leading manufacturer of electronic wire and cable, announced the installation of their PowerPipe™ Class 4 Fault-Managed Power (FMP) Cabling System in a large-scale warehouse expansion project at Mouser Electronics, one of the industry’s largest global distributors of electronic components. Mouser incorporated the Class 4 FMP system to control its expansive LED lighting system, believed to be the largest Class 4 LED lighting system of its kind. This system will save energy, add flexibility to control lighting spaces, and reduce the materials footprint.
Sinclair Digital Services, Inc. was chosen to provide and commission all the equipment for this project, including headends, distribution enclosures, VoltServer equipment, and lighting fixtures. They specified Remee Wire & Cable’s PowerPipe™ hybrid distribution cable for all data and power connectivity.
Hannah Walker, Chief Operating Officer, Sinclair Digital Services, explained why Remee Wire &
Cable was awarded this project. “We chose Remee to supply the quality cable we needed
because they were at the forefront of Class 4 FMP technology and have been doing this longer
than anyone else. In addition to providing us with a custom cable design, they helped us reduce labor costs and waste by providing a hybrid cable with fiber optic strands and copper cable pairs under one jacket, requiring only one cable pull.”
The new Mouser facility features a connected Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) lighting system, with a single Remee PowerPipe™ Class 4 FMP Ethernet cable providing low voltage DC power and enabling network communication to each lighting fixture and control center. The DC power infrastructure eliminates losses associated with AC-to-DC conversion, reducing Mouser’s carbon footprint while improving lighting control and lowering operational costs.
While many PoE lighting systems connect to AC-powered PoE switches, Mouser’s new warehouse deploys a DC powered infrastructure using Class 4 fault-managed power (FMP). This further reduces energy, material and labor costs while maintaining centralized control.
Mouser’s new PoE lighting system uses approximately 60% less copper and 100% less steel.
Remee’s PowerPipe™ hybrid cable is part of its larger line of Activate™ Power Distribution Cables. PowerPipe™ cables meet the new UL 1400-2 standard for Class 4 FMP systems and are rated CL4P or CL4Z.
