In the construction of high-speed networks in data centers, high-density fiber optic cabling has become mainstream. How to achieve efficient and flexible connections within limited cabling space? The 16-fiber MPO/MTP to 2x 8-fiber MPO/MTP fiber optic patch cord, with its high-density advantage, has become an important tool for optimizing network architecture. What is an MPO Fiber Optic Patch […]
What are the application advantages of 800G optical module technology? As a disruptive force in data-center and high-performance-computing environments, 800 Gb/s optical-module technology is steering the industry toward higher bandwidth, lower cost, and reduced power consumption. The key benefits are: Dramatic increase in switching bandwidth: Compared with 400 Gb/s-port systems, 800G technology doubles the aggregate […]
A recent report by Counterpoint Research forecasts a remarkable surge in the market for Near-Packaged Optics (NPO) and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) solutions, which are expected to be the primary drivers of in-package optical IO technology revenues over the next decade. According to the report, OBO (On-Board Optics), CPO, and NPO solutions are projected to achieve […]
With the widespread adoption of 100G PAM4 modulation technology, current 400G/800G optical modules extensively utilize the 4×100G PAM4 and 8×100G PAM4 architectures. Against this backdrop of technological evolution, traditional 4×25G NRZ schemes (e.g., 100G QSFP28 SR4) or 4×50G PAM4 schemes (e.g., 200G QSFP56 SR4) face three critical challenges: firstly, rate mechanism incompatibility causing link negotiation […]
The global data center industry is poised for sustained expansion driven by escalating investments in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, with worldwide capital expenditures (CAPEX) projected to surpass ＄1 trillion by 2029, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21% over the forecast period. This growth trajectory is underpinned by the proliferation of accelerated servers […]
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 […]
