The apparently insatiable public demand for broadband internet access, driven largely by widespread on-demand video streaming, VR augmented learning proliferation, and high-resolution image social media sharing (among other rich data-type use cases) is driving data centers to adopt both denser fiber cabling architectures and transmission equipment offering higher speed optical Ethernet standards. With 12-fiber MPO cables (with each fiber carrying 100-Gbit/sec data traffic by 2020), the enterprise value of even a single MPO link is so high that data center operators are now realizing that maintaining absolutely pristine connectors is an operational imperative.
Fast MPO connector inspection means dramatic opex reduction in the data center
