HUBER+SUHNER, a manufacturer of components and
systems for optical and electrical connectivity, unveilled its
latest data centre solutions to the American market at Data
Center World Global earlier this year.
At the event, the company showcased its LISA side access
system – designed to further improve flexibility, practicality
and user-friendliness with regard to cross-connect solutions –
as well as IANOS, Huber+Suhner’s most advanced and
adaptable fibre management system to date.
The expanded IANOS system offering is based on a modular
cassette/tray solution. This facilitates rapid deployments as
well as easy alterations for best-in-class handling and
scalability, all of which are key factors in operating data
centres.
The design allows complete customisation and configuration
offerings according to various customer needs.
“It is Huber+Suhner’s pioneering modular network technology
which has allowed it to be recognised across Europe for its
ability to efficiently produce and integrate modern, reliable
and future-proof data centre technology,” said Tony Walker,
head of data centre business development.
“We now hope to bring this success to the US market,
especially given that the US has some of the largest data
centre infrastructures in the world, providing a range of
services from commercial, industrial, military and defence
applications – all of which Huber+Suhner is capable of
providing solutions for.”
Huber+Suhner has a history of involvement in the
modernisation and future-proofing of large-scale data centres
in a multitude of network systems around the world.
Its ‘Building Block’ technology has seen the company
upgrade outdated and inefficient networking infrastructures
from a 10G serial to be capable of supporting a 40G and
100G parallel optics, a network that is modern, reliable and
future-proof.
Data centres in general face issues including overheating,
limited network cable transmission range and reliability of
service.
These issues are directly addressed and mitigated through
the integral modular and compact design of Huber+Suhner’s
data centre solutions reducing the risk of system failures and
maintaining a reliable, sustainable and cost-effective
communication infrastructure.
