As networking equipment becomes denser and port counts in the data center increase to hundreds and thousands of ports, managing cables connected to these devices become a difficult challenge. Traditionally, connecting cables directly to individual ports on low port-count equipment was considered manageable. Applying the same principles to high port-count equipment made the task more […]
For each of the required TIA and ISO structured cabling measurements, you will find troubleshooting tips to help quickly pinpoint the cause of failures when they occur. In some examples, you will find suggested reasons why the measurement does not fail in cases you would expect to see a failure. Wiremap Test Result Possible Cause […]
The following table helps you to understand more clearly about the categories of Ethernet cable. Items Category 5 / cat5 Category 5e / cat5e Category 6 / cat6 Category 6a / cat6a Category 7 / cat7 Category 8 / cat8 Applicable for Phone YES YES YES YES NO NO Applicable for Office Network YES YES […]
What will the 400G BiDi MSA group define? The MSA group is dedicated to defining optical data link specifications based on a dual wavelength bidirectional transmission technology on multimode fiber (MMF) that enables a reduction in fiber count relative to other solutions. The 400 Gbps BiDi solution leverages both the widely adopted 40 Gbps and […]
The demanding of higher bandwidth is stronger than ever before. This is driving the data center upgrade from 25G, 40G, 100G to 400G or more. Currently most of the data centers, enterprises, metros, and long haul networks are using cost-effective 40G or 100G connectivity. However, due to the bandwidth demanding, venders are starting to deploy […]
This DON’TS is especially for those engineers used to focus on copper structured cabling. Do not twist the AOC cables, it is not like copper cable Do not pull the AOC cables, each cable with a pulling force requirement Do not staple the cables. Do not uncoil the cable, as a kink might occur. if […]
Since twisted pair used in the data communication network, there are many types of terminology like UTP, STP, FTP etc for describing the twisted cable, these cables are used in the different environment like the high-performance data center, enterprise machine room, manufacturing facilities etc. Based on ISO/IEC 11801, there are 8 types of cables, please […]
What does SFP+ stand for? Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus. It is the second generation of the SFP interconnect systems designed for 10G performance. What is your standard turn around time for delivery? TARLLUZ carries high levels of inventory on standard lengths (0.5m, 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 2.5m, 3m, and 5m). Other lengths are available in 3 […]
Multi-fiber connectors contain “keys” which maintain defined fiber polarity when the connectors are mated together. MPO / MTP® adapters contain an asymmetrical housing including an inverted key to achieve the appropriate fiber polarity. On Type A adapters, the keys are inverted to ensure that the fiber at position 1 is connected to position 1 in […]
QSFP28 is short for Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable 28. It has become the dominant form factor for 100G networks. The interconnect offers four channels of high-speed differential signals with data rates ranging from 25 Gbps up to potentially 40 Gbps, and meets 100 Gbps Ethernet (4×25 Gbps) and 100 Gbps 4X InfiniBand Enhanced Data Rate […]
