Fiber Solutions
for all data center environments
Spine/Leaf Architecture
Hyper Dense Cabling
- Full mesh network
- Designed for East-West traffic flows
- Spines connected to each leaf
- Hyper dense fiber infrastructure at the spine row
Traditional 3 Tier Network
Lower Density Cabling
- Core, aggregation, access
- Designed for North-South traffic flows
- Network connectivity at the MDA, HDA or EDA
- Dense fiber infrastructure at the HDA or collapsed core/aggregation in the MDA
Any-to-Any Connections
Cross Connect Field
- Can be used with both architectures
- Provides granularity of port connections
- All switch ports replicated at cross-connect
- Hyper dense fiber patching at the cross-connect
Keeping Up With Density
Optics have changed!
Port speed and density are doubling with the introduction of QSFP-DD transceivers
Higher density, CS, SN, and MDC connectors accommodate increased patching in the same cabling footprint
