As demands for increased throughput and higher speeds continue to grow, the data center infrastructure must be flexible enough to change with those demands. According to the Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers, or TIA-942, a structured cabling system is the ideal way to future-proof your data center. In this archived webinar, Senior Data Center Architect for CABLExpress Rick Dallmann provides the roadmap for building a structured cabling system.
In “Best Practices for Migrating to a Structured Cabling Solution,” you will learn:
Key concepts of TIA-942
Why data centers are migrating to a structured cabling solution
Changes to the physical layer of the data center that take place during migration
How to sell a structured cabling solution to organizational leadership
Tips and best practices to consider while migrating to a structured cabling solution

As demands for increased throughput and higher speeds continue to grow, the data center infrastructure must be flexible enough to change with those demands. According to the Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers, or TIA-942, a structured cabling system is the ideal way to future-proof your data center.
Join us for a webinar on July 25 to hear from Senior Data Center Architect for CABLExpress Rick Dallmann, who will provide the roadmap for building a structured cabling system.
As speed and throughput demands increase in the data center, your fiber optic cabling infrastructure must be able to perform up to standard. Part of your fiber optic cable performance includes effectively managing dB loss and loss budgets. It is important to know how much data you can afford to lose without sacrificing performance. During our webinar on June 28, we’ll explore dB loss and loss budgets.
In “Increasing Data Center Performance Through Effective dB Loss Management,” you will learn:
What is dB loss and how does it relate to loss budgets?
How does dB loss affect your data center fiber optic infrastructure?
What are best practices in managing dB loss?
How are new standards and technologies affecting loss budgets?
Title: Increasing Data Center Performance Through Effective dB Loss Management

Last week senior product manager Josh Taylor presented on how you can take your network to 40 or 100G Ethernet. Josh covered why data centers are moving to higher speeds, how cabling infrastructure is affected by migration, and what data centers can do the plan for the imminent change. View the archived version of the webinar here:
With the ratification of new industry standards and increased demands on data center throughput, 40/100G Ethernet will be an integral component of the next generation data center.
In fact, it is already an emerging influence on how organizations plan, build and operate their existing data center architecture. The market proves this: manufacturers are already responding to the increased demand for Ethernet hardware, including cabling products, switches and transceivers.
