solutions integrating QSFP+ Passive Copper interfaces

Siemon, a leading global manufacturer of IT network cabling and infrastructure systems, announces the release of its 40 Gb/s 40+Gb/s QSFP+ passive copper cabling products.  These shielded 4-lane copper cable assemblies were developed as a cost-effective, low-power option for high-speed data centre interconnects up to 10 metres, ideal for applications such as high-performance computing (HPC), enterprise networking, video networking and network storage systems.
The QSFP+ Passive Copper form factor interface can replace up to three standard SFP+ connections, providing greater port density and reduced system cost. Advanced design and manufacturing processes, such as precision wire stripping and a unique automated termination process result in optimised cross talk and Return Loss. The same automated processes result in Siemon’s QSFP+ Passive Copper consistent and industry leading signal integrity performance.

The transition between OM1 Simplex Patch Cord

All patch cords can be ordered as simplex or duplex type, with various connector and length options. All cables are tested, and individual attenuation report is provided with each product  The fiber cables are with high return loss and low insertion loss,OM1 Simplex Patch Cord FC to E2000 and they can be available in simplex and duplex with FC, SC, LC, ST, MTRJ or MU connectors. These fiber cables are compatible with all major brands like Cisco, HP, Foundry and Juniper. We also provide OM1 fiber cables in Riser, Plenum, and LSZH (Low smoke – Zero Halogen) types.you have the option between a standard or custom OM1 or OM2 Jumper by choosing either a simplex or a duplex fiber jumper, the patch cable’s specific length and particular LC, SC, FC, or ST connector. 2m ST-LC Simplex  Whether your OM1 (Infinicor 600) or OM2 (Infinicor 300) patch cord comes standard or with custom configurations. Primus Cable multimode OM1 Simplex Patch Cord are offered in several outside diameter sizes and meet all tooling and termination requirements.
As mentioned earlier, single mode cables use the thinner optical fibers.  Therefore, the 9 micrometer cores are all single mode, labeled as SM 9/125 fibers and have yellow jackets.  Multi mode cables use the far thicker diameters of 50 and 62.5 micrometers with three different classes: OM1, OM2 and OM3 where OM stands for Optical Multi-mode.   are 62.5 micrometers while OM2 and OM3 are both 50 micrometers.  OM3 is differentiated from OM2 by being optimized for laser transceivers.  The colors used for the cables are as follows: OM1 – orange jackets, OM2 – blue jackets, OM3 – aqua jackets.

assembly is the first for QSFP+ Cable applications

3M Electronic Solutions Division has unveiled an active optical cable for applications requiring interoperability of 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40 GbE) switch ports and 10 GbE server ports. The fiber fanout cable assembly is the first for QSFP+ Cable applications, the company asserts.The active optical cable leverages VCSEL and 3M light-engine technologies, which the company believes will help the cable find use in data centers and high-performance computing (HPC) clusters.The hybrid active optical cable assembly transitions a single QSFP+ Cable to CX4 port with four parallel channels to four individual, single-channel SFP+ ports in top-of-rack (ToR) applications. As the fanout assembly supports direct-attach transitions at a one-to-four QSFP+ Cable ratio, more 40 GbE uplinks can be deployed in these applications, 3M says.
“This new AOC fanout assembly from 3M helps simplify cable routing for 10 GbE aggregation and 40 GbE top-of-rack applications while allowing optimization of the limited QSFP+ Cable uplinks found on today’s network switches,” said Jeff Bullion, marketing manager, System and Components Business, 3M Electronic Solutions Division. “It provides a true plug-and-play, low-cost, low-power and low-latency alternative to the pluggable modules and patch cords commonly used today.”AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)– A fiber fanout cable assembly  document specifies supporting the interoperability of 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40 GbE) switch ports and 10 GbE server ports is now available from the 3M Electronic Solutions Division. The first-of-its-kind, 3M Active Optical Cable (AOC) Assembly for QSFP+ Cable Applications incorporates industry-leading VCSEL and 3M light-engine technologies to deliver exceptional cost and performance value for data centers and high-performance computing (HPC) clusters.

the armored fiber optic patch 10G cables are small diameter

Armored fiber optic patch 10G cables uses stainless steel armor inside the jacket, which helps make it resistant of high tension and pressure. It retains all the features of normal patch cord, but much more stronger. When individuals use such armored 10G cables, they don’t need to worry the rodent animals such as the rats may bite the cables and make them broken. It may resist the load of an adult person, and it is difficult to break when bent or dragged. The interior armor can safeguard the entire cable from rodent. With stainless steel tube within the outer jacket to safeguard the central unit from the cable, the armored fiber optic patch cables are simple to use in harsh invironment. Although armored QSFP+ 10G cables are strong, they’re actually as flexible as standard fiber optic patch cords and could be bend randomly without having to be broken.
Installation procedure and maintenance is also easy. They’re ideal option for people who is seeking fiber optic patch cords with addtional durability and protection in addition to light weight. They retain the feature of all common types fiber optic patch cables, they are flexible to deploy in FTTH projects inside the buildings, normally the armored fiber optic patch 10G cables are small diameter and with PVC jacket, suit for indoor only use, outdoor usage fiber optic patch cables can also be found, they are with heavy PE jacket. They can be used directly in full duplex various harsh environment without additional protection.they can save space, reduce construction cost, making the constant maintenance more conveniently. Furthermore, the stainless steel tube prevents optic fiber from damage, which improves security and stability of the system.
