The use of fiber optics in telecommunications and wide area networking has been common for many years, but more recently fiber optics have become increasingly prevalent in industrial data communications systems as well. High data rate capabilities, noise rejection and electrical isolation are just a few of the important characteristics that make fiber optic technology ideal for use in industrial and commercial systems.

Over the last decade, wireless networks have undergone a substantial transition due to the rise of smartphone use and more recently the growing number of smart devices in an increasingly connected society. This migration has been underpinned by significant advances in handset and radio access network (RAN) technology, and enabled by major developments in mobile backhaul technology.
Now these same networks need to transition again to enable significantly better transport performance, supporting the evolution to Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) functionality and eventually 5G. At the same time, they must provide investment protection and avoid unnecessary “rip and replace” of network hardware.
Cable TV operators and MSOs (multiple system operators) need to transport vast quantities of data from cable modems at remote CMTS (cable modem termination systems) access sites to core router at head end, central office sites. The CMTS allows operators to provide high-quality data services to cable subscribers. The core router sites are normally composed of Ethernet equipment for data handling and CATV headend equipment for content handling. The CMTS sites handle the content delivery to the various end locations. As data rates, applications and the sheer quantity of data continue to grow, there’s a parallel increased need to quickly and efficiently transport this data over a reliable transmission network.
For most corporate data centers, the key concern is managing connections within the data center itself, since that’s where most of the traffic stays. For this environment, it’s possible to connect 100G traffic together in a relatively simple way, using standard transceiver and cable assemblies, within the equipment rack or spanning opposite sides of the data center floor. This is sufficient for most scenarios, when there is no need to worry about transferring data between data centers or between towns or cities.
