Next-generation connectivity solutions on show

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 Its ‘Building Block’ technology has seen the company upgrade outdated and inefficient networking infrastructures from a 10G serial to be capable of supporting a 40G and 100G parallel optics, a network that is modern, reliable and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.

Huber+Suhner, 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. a manufacturer

CABLES for vehicles, IT systems, the energy sector and other application sectors must meet continuously increasing requirements. In order to keep pace with this development, cable manufacturers need machinery which can produce complexly designed cables, work in an energy, raw materials and cost-effective way and can be flexibly adapted to new production requirements. One example is the DSI 631 type double twist stranding machine which has been designed for the stranding of insulated conductors into pairs and quads and the stranding of four conductor pairs into LAN cables. The machine is able to manufacture reliably LAN cables of all categories – even of future generations – as well as pairs with tape shielding, bus cables and other telecommunications cables. The DSI stranding machines system includes a lot of additional auxiliary equipment, so that customer-specific production lines can be created and rapidly rebuilt depending on the order situation. Maschinenfabrik Niehoff GmbH & Co KG – Germany Website : www.niehoff.de Cable machinery developed and built by Niehoff meets all these requirements.
