IntroductionIn modern data centers and enterprise networks, Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP) cables are everywhere. They connect servers, switches, and storage at speeds from 40G to 400G and beyond. Thanks to their four-lane parallel architecture, QSFP cables combine high bandwidth with compact design, helpin...

Introduction: why fiber patch cables matter?In a modern data center, every high-speed optical link depends on the right fiber patch cable. These short fiber optic cords connect transceivers, switches, patch panels, and servers. Without them, even the best optical modules and switches cannot deliver performance.As da...

Introduction: Why talk about AOCs?As data center speeds grow from 10G → 25G → 100G → 400G → 800G, the choices for server-to-switch interconnects become more complex. Today, IT teams typically pick between three options: DAC (Direct Attach Copper) – cheapest, short-distance. AOC (Active Optical Cabl...

IntroductionIn today’s high-speed data centers and enterprise networks, choosing the right cable is critical. While fiber optics get most of the attention, Twinaxial cables (Twinax), especially in the form of Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables remain one of the most cost-effective and reliable solutions for short-dis...

Introduction: Why Upgrade Speeds MatterModern workloads such as AI training, cloud computing, video streaming, and HPC (high-performance computing) are pushing networks harder than ever. If the network cannot keep up, servers and GPUs sit idle waiting for data.This is why many IT teams are planning their upgrade pat...

Introduction: Why new fiber connectors are needed?As networks move from 100G to 400G and 800G, one challenge becomes clear: the number of optical ports in a single rack is exploding. Traditional connectors like LC duplex or MPO/MTP have served data centers well for decades, but they now face limits in density, handl...
