Data Center Architecture Emerging Trends in Technology Fiber is becoming predominant over copper Smaller data centers emerging in non-conventional markets Cloud computing – providing computing as a service rather than a product, via the internet IP Cameras are replacing CCTV for video surveillance 10G fiber uses LC TX/RX single pair 40G fiber uses a 12-fiber MTP configuration 100G fiber uses a 24-fiber MTP configuration Cat6A copper cable is required for 10G Ethernet As we researched the data center architecture trends, some of the things that prevailed as emerging topics in our discussions were: Fiber is becoming predominant over copper. Smaller data centers emerging in non-conventional markets. These are the 5, 10 or 15 cabinet data centers utilizing predominantly copper and fiber applications. Cloud computing – providing computing as a service rather than a product, via the internet. IP Cameras are replacing CCTV for video surveillance. More and more data centers and larger structured cabling projects are being installed to simply support video surveillance. 10 Gigabit Fiber uses traditional LC connections While 40 and 100 Gigabit Fiber uses a 12- and 24-fiber MTP configuration, respectfully. Cat6A copper cable is required and is the standard for 10 Gigabit Ethernet

Selling Fiber vs. Copper Fiber is appealing to larger operations than Copper Less weight than copper cable Fewer analog problems (Attenuation, Alien Crosstalk) More available bandwidth Less power required to operate high speed interfaces OM3 is predominant, OM4 emerging More difficult termination process than copper As mentioned, one of the key trends in data center networking is the movement from copper to fiber. However, the ultimate decision lies with the customer and their particular preference. The propensity to lean more towards fiber installations is especially prevalent in larger operations. Fiber weighs less than copper cable and makes for easier installations Fewer analog problems like Attenuation and Alien Crosstalk Fiber offers more available bandwidth It takes less power to operate high speed interfaces and less power relates to a smaller carbon footprint OM3 is predominant at the moment but OM4 is quickly an emerging trend The only caveat to fiber installations is they have a more difficult termination process than copper

Selling Fiber vs. Copper Copper offers some unique benefits to smaller systems Easier to terminate Switching hardware is less expensive Alien crosstalk is less likely to be problematic with fewer cables Able to support Power over Ethernet devices (WAPs, IP Cameras) Power budget is less of a concern to a smaller server count operation However, copper installations also offer their own unique benefits. As mentioned, copper installs are easier to terminate Switching hardware is less expensive with copper interfaces Alien crosstalk is less likely to be problematic with fewer cables like in a smaller data center Copper installs are able to support Power over Ethernet devices like WAPs and IP Cameras And lastly for smaller server count operations, power budgets are less of a concern.

Procyon Development What IT users were looking for: High-density in smaller spaces for greater capacity Easy installations with simple plug-and-play connectivity Integrated cable management for better air circulation to improve component durability Trouble-free access to individual ports Fiber components that can accommodate future bandwidth applications In the development of OCC’s newest data center and structured cabling solution Procyon, we worked alongside data center professionals and listened to their every day challenges. From those conversations, we learned about what works and what doesn’t and we put that knowledge to work developing the Procyon family of products. IT users wanted High-density in smaller spaces for greater capacity with an equal or reduced footprint than competitors Easy installations with simple plug-and-play connectivity. Pre-terminated is very important to the IT user. Integrated cable management features that provide better air circulation to improve component durability Trouble-free access to individual ports to facilitate adds and changes quickly, reduce maintenance costs and reduce downtime. Fiber components that can configure for ten gigabit now but can easily be replaced one cassette at a time for forty to one hundred gigabit applications

Procyon Development The Procyon Architecture mandated: High Density products 144 LC in 1RU High fiber count for emerging 40/100G Ethernet Cable Management features Accommodate high density patching requirements Conceal cables for a neat and clean look during operation Thermal accessories Assist cooling for higher power servers Lower their HVAC operating costs From that list of IT user requirements, the Procyon development process and design mandated: High Density products – at least 144 LCs in 1RU and even higher fiber counts for emerging 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet Cable Management features to accommodate high density patching requirements and to conceal cables for a neat and clean look during operation Thermal accessories to assist cooling for higher power servers and to lower their HVAC operating costs

Procyon Development The result of this research was A modular, unified and comprehensive system approach to data center design and structured cabling We were challenged to incorporate all of these features and the result of our research and development was a scalable, unified and comprehensive approach to product design. Procyon by OCC is a complete system approach to data center design and structured cabling rarely seen in the industry . These solutions have been carefully designed and constructed to offer components that work great individually but even better when combined.

Procyon Technology Development Themes End to End Cabling/Connectivity/Cabinet system Integrated cable management Fiber cassettes combined with novel installation features of the combined cassette/chassis system for easy installation and future serviceability. Thermal efficiency Novel thermal barrier/cable manager cabinet accessory kit The most reliable and highest performance copper and fiber products Throughout the design process of each component, our goal was to provide an end to end solution that incorporated cable, connectivity and physical infrastructure components. Together as a system and separately as individual products, they would combine integrated cable management and thermal efficiency to provide the most reliable and highest performing copper and fiber installations.
