New 5G optical network architecture requires high bandwidth and low latency. Therefore, the providers of fiber optic cables are all gearing up to meet the challenges to manufacture new 5G related products for 5G network deployment. Innovative optical fibers have been introduced to serve 5G requirements from the core to access networks in recent years, […]
Though MPO connectors and MTP® connectors use the same form factor and multiplex push-pull coupling type (SNAP), to improve optical and mechanical performance, MTP® connectors developed by US Conec feature some unique design characteristics, which contribute to the simple and fast installation, flexibility and stability of MTP® connectors. Simple and Fast Installation An MTP® connector […]
There comes a more demanding request for higher transmission speed and larger capacity with the prevalence of cloud computing in the era of big data. 40/100G networks are increasingly becoming more commonplace in data centers. As an alternative to MPO cables, MTP® cables with better performance have been the inevitable trend in data center cabling. […]
MTP® is a registered trademark of US Conec, which is the acronym for Multi-fiber Termination Push-on. When it comes to MTP® connectors in daily operations, MPO connector is often seen as an interchangeable term. Though MTP® brand connectors are fully compliant with MPO standards and are fully compatible with MPO brand connectors, nevertheless, MTP® connectors […]
Uninterrupted power supply (UPS) and inverter are both the devices used to support power supplies when the power outage happens. Is UPS the same as inverter? Which one is better for home/business use? Do I need a UPS or an inverter? If you have these questions, this post will offer you some help on understanding […]
MTP/MPO cable is currently widely used in high-speed, high-density applications and large data centers. Its quality determines the stability and sustainability of the entire network. Therefore, the quality of MTP cable is particularly important. Then, how to tell the quality of MTP cable? What factors should we consider? Get guidelines in this post. Factors to […]
Fiber optic cable is usually (but not always) installed in an innerduct that provides mechanical protection for the fiber optic cable. Generally, the duct is available in plastic, concrete, steel, iron and so on. As fiber optic cable is sensitive to excessive pulling, bending and crush forces, much care shall be taken to avoid cable […]
Today, the wireless network is seemingly popular in everywhere. But the explosive fast Internet is available in most homes and businesses, a wired network often can achieve speeds much closer to the promised maximum. In this case, wiring the Internet creates a large mass of incoming cables. Patch panels play a central role in network […]
RJ45 patch panels provide a useful solution for cable management in data centers and other high-density environments. In the market, two types are offered like punch down and feedthrough patch panel. But consumers often find it’s difficult to make a decision on which one is better. This article is going to help your dilemma. Punch […]
In the data center, copper patch panel is an ideal method to create a flexible, reliable and tidy cabling system. Today, various styles of copper patch panels can be found in the market, such as shielded or unshielded patch panel, flat or angled patch panel, etc. And the configurations can also be different from numbers […]
