In today’s fast-paced world, change is the only constant, and nowhere is this more evident than in the enterprise IT arena. The evolving nature of technology makes it mandatory for organizations to review and replace data center network cabling in order to cope with constantly growing business needs. Data center network cabling is the backbone that supports
We all know that the importance of fiber optic cabling and its role in all major applications. So it’s very important that we need to make sure that this is working properly and maintained. In the event of troubleshooting or implementation there are many tools used, such as visual faults locator, optical power meter, &
When you are making the decision to house your equipment and information in a colocation facility, space and power needs are top of mind. Still, it is just as critical to understand the different network interconnection options available to you so that your customers and business users are able to access your computational power and
Now let us look into the topic that how can we deploy MTP/MPO connectors and cables. This article will give you an exact idea about various MPO connectors basics and best practices. Generally, the MPO cables and connectors can be utilized in 3 ways which are MPO/MTP adaptors, MTP/MPO-LC Cassette, MTP-LC Breakout Patch Panel, Transceivers
From a cost perspective, building and operating a data center represents a significant piece of any Information Technology (IT) budget. The key to the success of any data center is the proper design and implementation of core critical infrastructure components. Cabling infrastructure, in particular, is an important area to consider when designing and managing any
We all know that there are multiple types of fiber optic cables & connectors are available in the market. Each of these is evolved in different stages and having its own advantages. One of the best fiber optic cabling solutions was the invention of MPO cables and MPO Connectors. We will discuss what is MPO
Previous article has given you an overall idea about the MPO cables and connectors. In this article, we will understand the structure of MPO Connectors and cables and MPO Polarity. MPO Polarity and it’s different types are very important for us to understand when it comes to cabling. MTP/MPO connector factory terminated assembly can house
We all know the importance of SFP transceivers. In fact, different types of SFPs and their advantages have been discussed in many articles. But it is also important to understand what is inside SFP Modules, how the functions of transmitting, receiving and signal conversions(electric signal to light and light to an electric signal) are happening.
If you are a person working on fiber optic cables and connectors, you must have at least heard about BiDI SFP connectors and used it. Have you ever think that why are these modules are having a single port? Is that because it can do either of transmitting/receiving? If not, how does it differ from
In my previous article, we have seen two different ways of testing optical fiber cables. We will discuss further more methods of optical fiber testing. 3) Optical Loss Test Set(OTLS) or Light source power meter(LSPM). The fiber optic link attenuation is tested using Optical Loss Test Set(OTLS) or a Light source power meter(LSPM). This type of testing is the most accurate
