Power over Ethernet technology has evolved to be a key part of wireless LAN architectures, IoT and enterprise networks
What is power over Ethernet (PoE)?
The Critical Role of Testing in Accelerating 800G Deployments
ntense cloud gaming requirements, emerging industrial connectivity needs and a new wave of applications powered by AI and ML are setting new expectations. This is why early, comprehensive testing has become a critical factor in accelerating 800G toward production and deployment to meet market demand.
The growing importance of fiber management in the data center – DCD
In hyperscale data centers and 5G networks, current fiber counts can be as high as 6,912 and even higher-count fibers are being manufactured. As more facilities embrace fiber-rich mesh architectures, the amount of fiber is only going to increase.
Managing the growing density of fibers and cables throughout data centers is becoming a full-time job. If not done well, the ramifications can be severe.
Examining single pair cabling technologies
Single pair cabling is intimately related to Single Pair Ethernet, a technology that has proven successful in other industries, particularly automotive production. For the past couple years, standards and product development activity have brought single pair cabling to the precipice of market introduction.
This roundtable-style conversation features the following individuals, whose companies are members of the Telecommunications Industry Association’s Single Pair Ethernet Consortium (SPEC): Adnan Ahmed, technical advisory and solutions lead, Reichle & De-Massari; Valerie Maguire, distinguished engineer, Siemon; Harshang Pandya, general manager, test and measurement solutions, AEM; and Bob Voss, distinguished engineer, Panduit.
The world’s oldest book meets modern communications
