Base-8 Plug and Play Fiber
Providing seamless transition from duplex 10 Gb/s to current and future 8-fiber applications.
Current 40 and 100 gigabit (Gb/s) multimode fiber applications, as well as future 200 and 400 Gb/s multimode and singlemode applications, are based on 8 optical fibers with 4 fibers transmitting and 4 receiving at either 10 Gb/s or 25 Gb/s.
Siemon’s Base-8 Plug and Play Fiber Systems, part of Siemon’s Advanced Fiber Cabling and LightVerse® Solutions, provides the simplest, most seamless transition from duplex 10 Gb/s to current and future 8-fiber applications to 400 Gig.
Siemon’s Base-8 systems includes enclosures, modules, adapters, trunk assemblies and jumpers to provide complete end-to-end 8-fiber systems, enabling 100% fiber utilization without the need for conversion cords or modules in 40/100 Gb/s applications and beyond.
Third-Party 400G Testing of Siemon’s Singlemode Ultra-Low Loss System
By demonstrating the capability of our Ultra Low Loss components to support multiple mated connections in 400 Gigabit channels and still meet stringent IEEE requirements, data center operators can have peace of mind that Siemon’s solutions can deliver flexibility over a range of distances and configurations, including the use of convenient cross-connects that facilitate management, upgrades, and reconfigurations—all while remaining within their loss budget.
