Maximizing data center connectivity performance is a top priority in today’s fast-paced digital landscape, and to maintain unparalleled speed, reliability, and scalability, data centers are turning to one transformative solution: fiber optic cable upgrades.
In my 26 years in the fiber optic manufacturing industry, I've learned that trust is crucial when it comes to weathering change. At Data Center Systems (DCS), I've been fortunate enough to lead an incredibly talented team of manufacturing coworkers, most of whom have been here for 28 years, and I believe that trust is what has allowed us to navigate the constant shifts and challenges in our industry.
As a Quality Assurance Manager for Data Center Systems (DCS), I am excited to share insights about fiber optic connector cleanliness and its impact on optical performance. Several posts have highlighted the significance of connector contamination and how it can affect the overall performance of the system.
Fiber optic cables are a critical component of the modern data center, providing faster speeds and lower latency which is essential for businesses and organizations to stay competitive and meet the high-speed data transfer needs of their customers.
The backbone of today’s high-speed internet is based on fiber optic cables which can deliver greater bandwidth at faster speeds over longer distances than traditional copper cables.
Network technicians installing and managing fiber cabling in data centers would be wise to take a page out of the “Ghostbusters” playbook: “When it comes to crossing the streams … be careful!”
It’s been 30 years since fiber optic cables ushered in a new networking era that fueled the rise of the internet and our modern digital world.
Fiber optic cables, with their ability to transmit more data at a higher speed, became the backbone of the internet, and during the COVID-19 pandemic became a lifeline with work, school and social life shifting online. Fiber optic connections were no longer a luxury but a necessity.
Structured cabling is much more than preventing your data center floor from looking like a big bowl of pasta. Sure, structured cabling will take care of “spaghetti cabling” issues or that tangled rats’ nest of wires often lurking in a business backroom.
