3M Twin Axial Cable Improves Server Efficiency, Computing

Zacks Equity Research

3M Company (MMM) recently introduced Twin Axial Cable solutions to increase efficiency of servers for high-performance computing (:HPC) power.

The dense server systems for HPC benefit from a flat, foldable ribbon design. The low-profile capabilities of Twin Axial Cable assemblies further save significant internal space, thus preventing congestion inside the dense server system. These cable solutions will be incorporated into Dell’s new PowerEdge C4130 rack servers, which provide flexible solutions to the most demanding high-performance computing environments.

3M’s Twin Axial Cable features a flat ribbon with less than 0.9 mm thickness, which optimizes airflow for better cooling to maintain high speeds and processing power demand for HPC environments. These cable solutions are more competitive than other variants available in the market.

Dell’s C4130 servers with 3M’s inventive cable design are likely to meet the density and other assembly challenges that HPC system engineers have been struggling with for so long, which can impact the data center.

3M remains focused on inventing new products to maintain its competitive advantage worldwide. The rise in demand for such innovative 3M product services is likely to augment its overall revenue.

3M, together with its subsidiaries, operates as a diversified technology company with manufacturing operations spread over 70 countries worldwide. It has more than 35 business units organized into six segments: Consumer and Office, Display and Graphics, Electro and Communications, Healthcare, Industrial and Transportation, Safety, Security and Protection Services.

3M Electrical Markets Division designs and manufactures products for diverse industries, including energy, commercial and industrial electrical construction, oil and gas, mining, water, transportation and manufacturing.

3M currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Other stocks that look promising and are worth a look include Carlisle Companies Inc. (CSL), Federal Signal Corp (FSS) and Noble Group Ltd. (NOBGY), each carrying a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
