January 27th, 2012 Rusty Barnhill

Last Friday we featured the Top 5 Most Popular Products on FireFold as viewed by the audience; this week we will take a look at the Top 5 Most Sold Products on FireFold in the past month:

Number 5
Cat6 Keystone Jack 110 Style – Blue

FireFold’s CAT6 Keystone Jack 110 Style are designed to provide excellent performance which exceeds the industry standard TIA/EIA 568-B standard making these jacks perfect for use in today’s high speed networks while remaining completely backwards compatible with all previous standards. Available in a variety of different colors making network identification or organization a snap. All our networking keystone jacks have 568a and 568b color codes on the jacks in addition to the easy trouble free 110 style termination.

Number 4
Cat5E Keystone Jack, 110 Style – Blue

The 110 block style has widely supplanted the previously used 66 block style. This is because of less crosstalk–the event of one signal on a circuit or channel being transmitted causes an undesirable effect on another circuit or channel and its compliance with Cat5/6 wiring systems, meaning, among other things, speeds of 100 Mhz or more.

A quick glimpse of the specs for this cable will offer some lofty figures: transfer rates of 10.2 Gbit/s (340 MHz), Support for resolutions of 3840×2160 at 24Hz | 25Hz | 30Hz & 4096×2160 at 24Hz, 3D support for up to 1080p resolution, and Deep color (30 bits per pixel).

Wired Wednesday — Bite Into the Apple

January 25th, 2012 Rusty Barnhill


With businesses releasing their first quarter earnings statements, news in the technology world was bound to shift to talk-of-numbers.The story this year–and has been for the past several years–is Apple’s dominance in the market; this week’s wired article remarks on Apple’s record-breaking quarter and compares its numbers to those of the competition. With the numbers side-by-side, the only conclusion to be drawn is that Apple “just works” for a lot of people.

As this post is about numbers, let’s look at some:

“Apple sold 37.04 million iPhones in the first quarter of its fiscal year (which began last October), up 128 percent from the same sales period last year.”

“Continuing to dominate the tablet field, Apple sold more than 15 million iPads in the first quarter, up 111 percent from the previous year’s Q1 report.”

“The company reported record quarterly net profits of $13.06 billion, an increase of more than 100 percent compared to the same quarter a year ago. For perspective, that’s nearly $3 billion more than Google’s reported revenues (not profits) for its first quarter.”

“Motorola Mobility sales fell flat in the company’s most recent quarter, while HTC — once considered the star of the Android hardware makers — saw a drop in sales for the first time in two years.”

“Motorola was the first to bring an Android competitor tablet to the market with its Xoom, though managed to ship — not necessarily sell — only 440,000 units in its third quarter last year.”

“Whether true or not, no single Android tablet competitor has been able to rival the iPad on the high-end. Xoom sales fizzled at the $600 price point, and others like LG’s G-Slate and Acer’s Iconia Tab faded from retailer shelves after months suffering little consumer attention. Other rival operating systems have fared even worse: HP effectively killed webOS last year by open-sourcing the platform, and RIM’s QNX platform has yet to see any major developer following.”

CEO Tim Cook said, “iPad is in a class by itself.” But perhaps it should read ‘Apple’.

Does Apple’s market dominance appeal to you?
