Fibre Patches: Tackling Next-Generation Needs

by Giorgio Friedrich fibers.org News, 21 Aug 2006 The vision of carrying the triple-play of voice, data and video services over a single convergent infrastructure has given birth to the idea of the next-generation network. One key driving force is the ever-increasing level of data traffic, which is in turn driven by the emergence of new IP-based, bandwidth-intensive applications. With next-generation networks delivering advanced services at increased data rates and standards calling for higher connector performance, the production of fibre patches and connections borders on precision engineering.
