In the first quarter of 2025, the global data center industry experienced an extraordinary 53% year-over-year surge in capital expenditures (Capex), marking the sixth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. This unprecedented expansion, as reported by Dell’Oro Group, is primarily driven by the relentless demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, especially from hyperscale cloud providers who […]
The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) has placed unprecedented demands on data center infrastructure, particularly in cabling systems. Modern AI data centers must balance ultra-high bandwidth, sub-microsecond latency, and energy efficiency to support the massive computational workloads of AI models. However, achieving this equilibrium requires overcoming significant cabling challenges, including managing skyrocketing speed and […]
In modern buildings, be it office buildings or data centers, cables weave through floors like a “nervous system.” Among them, the Riser cable, which is designed specifically for vertical channels, plays a vital role in ensuring building fire safety. What is a Riser Cable? A Riser cable (compliant with UL 1666 standards) is a communication […]
In modern building design, riser cables play a pivotal role in ensuring safe, efficient, and reliable connectivity between floors. But what exactly defines a riser cable, and why it is critical for vertical infrastructure? Let’s explore the fundamentals. What is Riser Cables? The riser cable is a fire-resistant cable specifically designed for vertical installations inside […]
AI data center is keep improving, optical transceivers receptacle type is also keep updating, the fiber connector for it is also evolving. We are upload the latest optical fiber connector type in this blog. Duplex Conectors LC: Lucent connector, it is 1.25mm ferrule and available in simplex MDC: It is a VSFF (Very Small Form […]
Currently people worldwide are focusing on the news of the tariff war between The United States and the rest of the world, but the technology keeps improving, and still developing fast. the 800G network is getting closer. We shall offer a quick introduction to the 800G transport modules. The 800G transport module covers wide form-factors, […]
Expanded Beam Optical Interconnect technology (EBO) probably is a solution to meet the performance and scalability needs of next-generation data centers and advanced network architectures. Four Key Features of Expanded Beam Connectors Lens-Based Design: the EBO Connectors use lenses (often spherical or aspherical) to expand the light beam emitted from the transmitting fiber and collimate […]
According to the press release, Microsoft plans to spend $80 billion by 2025 to expand its AI and data center infrastructure. about 60% increased from the year 2023 ($50 billion CapEx). This investment underscores the company’s commitment to advancing AI technologies and supporting the growing demand for cloud services and data processing capabilities, half of […]
The rapid growth of data-intensive applications such as AI (Artificial intelligence), ML (Machine Learning), HPC (High-performance Computing) and cloud computing. 800G bandwidth is the basic need for those applications, OSFP (Octal Small Form Factor Pluggable) transceivers is one type of form factor for 800G transceivers. The OSFP transceivers are available in two primary designs: finned-top […]
SWDM is an abbreviation of Short Wavelength Division Multiplexing. It is a technology used in fiber optic communications to increase bandwidth by transmitting several wavelengths over multimode fiber. OM4 and OM5 are the types of multimode fiber (MMF) that used now in data centers and enterprise networks. Introduction to OM4 Fiber: Bandwidth: OM4 fiber has […]
