The increasing bandwidth demands on data centers and the need to lower per-bit power consumption may soon require the adoption of co-packaged optics (CPO) technology. In this webinar, LightCounting will discuss CPO market prospects and Corning and US Conec will discuss deployment challenges and the design of fibers and connectors to meet them.
That said, anticipated server architectural changes and accelerated computing will spur long-term data center investments, Dell’Oro believes.
The service provider says it so far has enabled more than half of its intercity network footprint in Europe to support 400G wavelength services, as well as 70 data centers and two transatlantic routes on the Grace Hopper and Dunant submarine networks.
The wavelength and Ethernet services are available on routes between Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Ashburn, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, and Miami.
Glo Fiber Business, the business services arm of U.S. cable MSO Shentel, says it has reached an agreement to link its network into Globalinx, a Tier III data center in Virginia Beach.
Hetzner Online has deployed Smartoptics open line systems as part of the network enhancement project.
