As higher speeds are adopted and utilized by data center owners and operators, newer short-reach singlemode fiber is proving to be the media of choice to support higher 100, 200, 400, and 800Gb/s speeds and beyond across a range of emerging applications, delivering a balance of cost-effective connectivity for higher speeds at greater distances.
In this deep-dive session, Gary Bernstein, Senior Director of Global DC Sales at Siemon, examined the evolving role of singlemode connectivity as well as how verified ultra-low loss (ULL), high-performance cabling systems are providing data center owners and operators the capability to reliably support short-reach singlemode applications with margin while enabling multiple connections for flexibility, manageability, scalability, and speed of deployment.
