Data Center Recorded Webinars | Corning

Network performance is more critical than ever before. Understanding the basics about how fiber works, the types of fiber and where to use them, will help you determine which fiber is right for you network.

This webinar will discuss learning applications, faster CPUs, server-less compute and distributed flash storage. Upgrading datacenters from 100G to 400G provides the simplest, lowest power and most cost-effective way to continue to scale network performance. 400G Ethernet also introduces new optics media types, the OSFP and QSFP-DD form factors, new fiber-plant choices, and options to re-use existing fiber infrastructure

This webinar will provide an overview of port breakout, defined as taking a parallel port and breaking it down to a lower speed port in the and its implications on structured cabling. We will also cover a new trend of certain customers wanting to break out transceiver ports at the transceiver interface and not in the structured cabling. We will introduce the proposed new connector designs and discuss the applications where they will potentially be used.

This webinar will provide an overview of the rapidly growing Data Center Interconnect space which has been giving rise to extreme density cabling solutions. We will cover the different cabling approaches to achieving this high density as well as the design and solution considerations that need to be evaluated with each different cabling solution.

This webinar will review the market for passive fiber network monitoring, often referred to as fiber tapping. Discussion will focus on the design tradeoffs of the different monitoring options on the market and discuss the implications of these options on structured cabling designs.

As data center and enterprise network transmission speeds continue to increase, the evolution to a multigenerational cabling infrastructure becomes fundamental. This webinar will emphasize the benefits of specifying fiber-optic cabling that supports multiple generations of high-speed data transmission and will also discuss recent updates to industry standards.

This presentation discusses the importance of inspecting and cleaning the connector end face, the approval/rejection criteria defined by the standards, as well as the methods to clean and maintain clean the connector.

The appeal of 400G Ethernet is clear: Bandwidth demand continues to grow, fueled by new Artificial Intelligent and Machine Learning applications, faster CPUs, server-less compute and distributed flash storage. This webinar explains what 400G Ethernet is, what’s involved in upgrading physical datacenter infrastructure to 400G, and how to choose the optics, cable and fiber-plant to best suit your applications.

This webinar discusses keeping cable management in mind when considering and selecting cabinet and rack solutions. It also explains cable pathway selection and deployment strategy.

This webinar discusses the importance of extreme density solutions. At lower densities the solutions were more forgiving, but at this density there is reason to optimize. Maximizing every square inch of conduit has become a bigger driver for hyperscalers and MTDCs

In this webinar you will learn: What are standards and why they are important, the difference between a standard and regulation as well as regional and global standards, how standards impact business, which standards govern the telcommunications industry, and how to stay up-to-date on the standards.

Cyber security is being brought up in conversation more and more by global connectivity and usage of cloud services. We rely on these services for everything from secure bank transactions to the content held on our phones. Cyber security is often relating to the software, but network monitoring has allowed an additional way to automatically detect and respond to threats and performance issues. This is especially important as the need to process and store data increases in a growing network.

This webinar will review the need for increased enterprise data center capacity speeds – from selecting the correct optical fiber and connectivity solutions to installation. It will emphasize the benefits of multimode fiber and connectivity, discussing optical fiber and Corning® CleanAdvantage™ Technology basics. We will also discuss what the future looks like for multimode fiber and links as the network continues to grow.
