Several ways of pre-terminated fiber optic cable connection and application scenarios
The pre-terminated optical cable is divided into three types: main cable, trunk extension cable and mpo-LC branch cable. Pre-terminated trunk cables are available for high-density applications in data centers, providing fiber-optic connections from 12-pin to 144-core. The length of the cable can be customized according to specific needs. The pre-terminated trunk cable has a traction protector design to prevent fiber and fiber connectors from being damaged during transportation and installation. The pre-terminated cable trunk cable can achieve a tensile force of 450N in the line slot. Mainly used in the backbone and horizontal routing of the data center. Mpo pre-terminated fiber optic cable branch cable MPO-LC is suitable for 12-core mpo adapter lc duplex connector, original internal crimping technology, safe and reliable and beautiful.
The pre-terminated cable solution is a cable management solution tailored for the data center.
The data center is the supporting site for the operation of the enterprise’s uninterrupted business platform. Establishing a data center through integrated processing, switching, and storage system platforms can save planning costs, save resources, and achieve high performance.
What are the benefits of using pre-terminated cables in data center rooms?
Due to the centralized system platform, the data center computer room will cause serious losses once the system is down. This loss is far greater than the initial investment in hardware. According to statistics, the data center must reach the level 4, that is, the reliability reaches 99.995%. The investment is 1.8~2.2 times that of the system without redundancy. As the physical bearer platform for data center information exchange, integrated wiring only accounts for less than 5% of the total investment, and its importance is very high. According to the statistics of authoritative organizations, 70% of data center failures are caused by human error, and a large number of reasons It is caused by improper operation of the wiring manager. Although the data center has strict protection for its wiring management area, for operators, facing a large number of cable connections, each connection change is a huge challenge. The data center needs a comprehensive cabling system built specifically for its characteristics. This system should have the following characteristics: high performance, high reliability, fast installation, modular system, high density, and future-oriented. Therefore, the pre-terminated optical cable management system came into being. The advantages of data center pre-terminated links are:
a, easy to manage, high reliability, fewer points of failure. Nearly 200 optical ports are often installed in a cabinet, and 200 optical jumpers are required to connect the 200 optical ports. It is not difficult to imagine the confusion of stacking 200 optical jumpers. The number of cabinets in the data center is very large and may exist. Thousands of optical jumpers, how to manage so many optical jumpers? If the optical wiring part is changed to a pre-terminated optical cable system, since the 12-core parallel optical fiber connector MPO is used, the light density to be managed will become 1/12 of the original, and then the original 200 optical jumpers become Now 3~4 roots. At the same time, since the MPO connector density is 12 cores, and the common fiber connector is 1 core, the number of failure points at the joint portion is reduced by 1/12, and the reliability is increased by 12 times.
b. Rapid deployment of pre-terminated optical cable systems uses high-density MPO connectors. The optical cables are terminated and tested at the factory. The connection is modular. This makes the installation simpler and faster. Compared with the traditional fiber fusion method, the new one. The modular technology can simultaneously complete 96-core fiber terminations in about 10 minutes, whereas the traditional way of terminating 96-core fibers will take 16 hours, which is practically not allowed in the data center. Rapid deployment means rapid troubleshooting, and this technology is significant for the data center.
c. Advantages of pre-terminated fiber optic cable management solutions that cannot be replaced: MPO fiber optic connectors are 12-pin parallel connections. This technology is a mature industry standard. Many new high-bandwidth network applications have adopted this technology. Such as: 10G Fiber Channel, HIPPI, 10G InfiniBand, 30G InfiniBand, 10G SONET/SDH, 40G SONET/SDH and so on.
