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 Its ‘Building Block’ technology has seen the company upgrade outdated and inefficient networking infrastructures from a 10G serial to be capable of supporting a 40G and 100G parallel optics, a network that is modern, reliable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