DCFTS 2024 Session 7: How Optical Transceivers with Inbuilt VSFF Connectivity Can Streamline Data Center Networks

Dec. 9, 2024
Here's an audio recording of Session 7 from the inaugural Data Center Frontier Trends Summit, held Sept 4-6, 2024, in Reston, Virginia.

Session Description from 2024 DCF Trends Summit Program:

How Optical Transceivers with Inbuilt VSFF Connectivity Can Streamline Data Center Networks

This presentation will take as its premise the pressures data center operators face (shrinking optical loss tolerance values, increased uptime, network scalability) and the challenges of conventional spine-leaf architecture. The session will go on to examine how data center operators can benefit now and into the future by leveraging the channelization and distribution capabilities of VSFF optical transceivers.

Also on the agenda: How leveraging other fiber cabling management solutions (like alignment independent multifiber interconnection systems with direct mating breakout capability) can help data center operators future-proof their facilities for imminent and escalating AI, IoT and ML workloads.
