Color provides quick visual identification. Color coding simplifies management and can save you hours when you need to trace cables. Color coding can be applied to ports on a patch panel: patch panels themselves come with different color jacks or have colored inserts that surround the jack. Cables are available in many colors (the color […]
With the technological evolution occurring in data centers, test requirements dramatically changed for the fiber networks that connect mission-critical servers, networking and storage devices. Selecting the proper OTDR to test your network not only strengthens its reliability, but also improves how quickly and efficiently the job is done, as well as documenting the quality of […]
The Telecommunications Industry Association’s TR-42 Engineering Committee and its subcommittees met the week of January 25, and one of the more significant results of the meeting was that the Category 8 standard—long in development within the TR-42.7 subcommittee focused on copper cabling systems—is just one step away from approval and publication. The standard is in […]
