According to CIR (CommunicationsIndustryResearchers) latest report, "2015 Active Optical Cable Market: data centers and high-performance computing market," in 2020 for the data center of the active optical cable (AOC) market will reach $ 4.2 billion.

Optical transmission equipment manufacturers Optelian recently launched MPX-9XXX series of two transmission platform for its 100Gbps new muxponder product.

Has been in the Internet industry, we all know that Facebook is developing its own software and hardware products, and they are trying to guide the development of this area, OCP open computing platform is an example. The company recently announced that it is independent of the development of next-generation data center with top of the rack TOR 100Gbps Ethernet switches.

With the emergence of cloud computing and accelerate the deployment of large and ultra-large-scale data, data centers, network managers must constantly readjust and further development of the network. Under the impetus of this challenge, a variety of new technologies and new standards have emerged, not only can be used to improve and optimize the network capacity, security and flexibility, while controlling costs. Let us look at the top five trends in 2015 and the network to the user's meaning.

Since its inception in 2007 AOC come out, the market has been volatile. Service has always been the mainstream of high-performance computer market 4x10Gbps QSFP+ AOCs is the case. Thankfully, the data center servers using 10GbE SFP+ AOCs. Accounting for a quarter of $ 87 million in 2014 AOC market. Data centers also require higher speed Ethernet: 25G, 40G, 100G, or 400G. The connection between the needs of the core router chassis AOC. This makes the AOC market in 2020 grew to $ 193 million.

According to Infonetics latest report on 10G / 40G / 100G optical modules noted that the enterprise network and data center applications 10G / 40G / 100G optical module market in 2014 grew by 21% to reach $ 1.4 billion, the second half of 2014 with the entire data center 40Gbps module market grew by 81% a year ago. The company also forecast that demand for data center 100G modules for the start, in 2016 there will be a substantial increase.

Germany ADVA optical transmission equipment manufacturers, recently said that the successful completion of 400Gbps optical transmission experiment a data center interconnect environment. Poland Poznan Supercomputing and Network Center PSNC with ADVA use PIONIER's research and education network from Warsaw to Poznan fiber network carried out the experiments. Experimental network also includes hybrid ROADM and amplifier.

Optical communication technology in the 2015 forum held recently, Ovum analyst Daryl Inniss speech, analyze the optical communication opportunities in the data center field. He said the data center network is driving demand for high-bandwidth connections between data centers and data center for internal. Terabit-level connection between the data center needs; and internal data centers require more cost connection to 100G. However, the high cost of optical networks market slowdown in the rate of expansion is a fundamental problem.

Fiber Jumper products are widely applied to: the communications room, fiber to the home, local area networks, fiber optic sensors, fiber optic communication systems, fiber optic transmission equipment connected, defense readiness and so on. It applies to cable television, telecommunications networks, computer networks and fiber optical test equipment. Broken down mainly used in several ways.

Both ends of the optical fiber jumper wavelength transceiver module must be consistent, meaning that both ends of the fiber must be the same wavelengths of light module, a simple distinction is the color of the light module to be consistent. Under normal circumstances, short-wave optical module using multimode fiber (orange fiber), long wavelength module uses single-mode fiber (yellow fibers), in order to ensure the accuracy of data transmission.
