GREETINGS FROM THE IWCS DIRECTOR Welcome to Atlanta!We are pleased to welcome you to the IWCS 2015 Cable Connectivity Symposium! The 2015 conference builds on the highly successful program from 2014, with even greater support from the industry in the form of rich technical content, participation in the Suppliers Exhibition, attendance and sponsorship.This is the 64th annual IWCS conference, which is a testament to the value that we continue to bring to you and your international cable and connectivity industry colleagues. Your IWCS 2015 has a number of exciting enhancements this year that will provide you an excellent learning and networking experience! After 10 years of rotating between Providence, RI and Charlotte, NC, we had feedback from our attendees to try different locations every so often. We selected Atlanta for its convenient international and domestic logistics and trust you had a smooth travel experience. We certainly hope that you enjoy the southern hospitality that Atlanta has to offer. The Hyatt Regency Hotel is both the IWCS 2015 venue and our host hotel. 2015 is also the first year the Conference is being held in October, a month earlier than the usual mid-November. We hope this change is beneficial for attendees and allows for fewer conflicts with the hectic end-of-year work demands and holiday schedules.Our 2015 program starts with the IWCS Professional Development Courses. These courses have always been cited as the outstanding training ground for both professionals new to the industry, and for brushing up on new technologies for those veterans keeping up with change. The Courses are led by industry professionals who provide a complete view of the subject matter, including exhaustive course materials. The courses run on Monday, October 5th so that participants will not miss any of the Conference program beginning on Tuesday. The Executive Session and Technical Symposium contains over 130 papers/presentations in 18 compelling Sessions, from Tuesday, October 6 through Thursday afternoon, October 8. The Suppliers Exhi-bition continues its two-day program on Tuesday and Wednesday, with plenty of opportunity/incentive for attendees to visit the exhibits. The Plenary Luncheon will feature the keynote address, Optical Solutions to Meet the Future Demands of The Internet of Things, by Michael A. Bell, PE, Sr. VP & GM, Optical Connectivity Solutions, Corning Optical Communications. Mr. Bell will address his unique perspectives and vision on the topic, which promises to be a highlight of the conference. The Plenary will also feature recognition for best papers and presenters of 2014. It is open to all Technical Symposium registered attendees, but please keep in mind that seating is limited.We recognize that networking is a critical element of any industry gathering, and we plan for plenty of opportunities at IWCS 2015. On Tuesday, IWCS will host a hospitality hour in the exhibit hall with your Suppliers and Customers. After the exhibits close, the Wire & Cable Industry Suppliers Association (WCISA) will join us to host a reception to honor our industrys young professionals, new visitors to IWCS and students who are showing interest to join our industry upon graduation. Plan to join us for cocktails and hors doeuvres prior to your evening dinner plans.Once again, welcome to Atlanta. The fine restaurants and lounges of this historic city are looking forward to your visit as well. Our most important goal is to meet all of your expectations for a valuable learning and networking experience. We look forward to meeting you and hearing of any suggestions you have to further improve your IWCS Conference in the years to come! I wish you a productive and enjoyable visit to IWCS 2015! David B. Kiddoo

The company spe-cializes in high temperature materials such as fluoropolymers: PFA, FEP, MFA, ECTFE, ETFE, and PVDF, as well as the following engineered resins: PEEK, PSU, PES, and PPSU. Additionally, CCG produces several polyolefin based non-halogenated grades especially developed to meet the new HF suffix and the LSHF suffix for halogen free and low smoke halogen free UL designa-tions, respectively. All of these materials are compounded with CCGs on site compound-ing equipment which provides enhanced fire retardancy and low smoke generation characteristics. The addition of CCGs chemi-cal foaming agents can be added to improve electrical performance while lowering the combustible footprint. What was once solid can now be foamed. Whether it be for CCG tapes, crosswebs, and tubes, or if you wish to chemically foam cable insulation, jackets, and cable filler that you manufacture. CCG can provide you foamable pellets for almost any application to include plenum, riser, or general purpose cables, or meet the Euro-pean Construction Product Regulation (CPR). FluoroFoam represents a product innova-tion to meet a growing need for chemically foamed FEP, MFA, or PFA for Category 6, 6e, 6A, and the evolving Category 8 Stand-ard. The foamed insulation adds electrical performance, enables higher data rates and minimizes heat buildup and transfer of heat



to adjacent cables for the evolving Power Over Ethernet (POE) requirement. Similarly, Halgone Lite allows insulation and/or jack-ets to be chemically foamed (25% to 50%) in a wide range of halogen free applications from the high temperature grades of PEEK, PSU, PES, or PPSU to the more traditional polyolefin grades of PE or PP.

The Clinton Instrument Company, the inven-tor of the 3 kHz High Frequency Sine Wave Spark Tester, is proud to announce the newest and most advanced 3 kHz AC spark tester, Model HF-15B. This new model se-ries replaces the highly successful HF-15A, first shown at Interwire in 2001. Since then, well over 10,000 HF-15A units have been shipped worldwide. In addition to the well-known reliability of Clinton spark testers, the HF-15B offers customers the ability to utilize many new technologies, providing easier integration, more information, and flexible solutions in response to difficult applications. The HF-15B features a large adjustable alphanumeric display, with multiple viewing options, that can be mounted directly to the test station or located remotely up to 200 feet away. Operating personnel can view a wide variety of relevant information directly on the front panel, toggling easily between percent-load and four different types of fault conditions. These are: Pinhole, Multiple Pinhole, Direct Metal Contact, and Gross Bare Wire. These fault types are analyzed and differentiated through the use of the HF-15Bs revolutionary DSP-Based Fault Typing (patent pending). When testing smaller wires with the HF-15B spark tester, the design of the new BD-12S Split-electrode (patent pending) provides maximum coverage on cable during testing and makes string-up both quick and easy. The HF-15B can be used as a stand-alone spark tester or it can be easily integrated into production lines. Four sets of relay outputs are provided, each with selectable functions allowing users to fully customize signals to include standard high voltage on indication, gen-eral fault alarm, bare wire alarm, plus many more options. A voltage-watchdog signal is now offered, which will signal when the spark tester is adjusted outside of an allow-able preset voltage range. PLC Integration is simple when connecting with Modbus RTU via RS-485 full duplex. Optional Ethernet/IP, Profinet, Profibus, Modbus TCP, and Analog Communications are offered as integrated upgrades to the new series when desired. The HF-15B Series supports fully auto-

matic calibration of voltage and sensitivity to EN50356, IEC/CEI 62230 and NEMA standards when using the Clinton Instrument Companys STCAL system. The HF-15B Spark Tester and the STCAL Calibration System will be shown during the IWCS show in October in booth 312.
