- At the moment the current trends in the industry are applications such as cloud computing, cloud services and social media causing data volumes to skyrocket. As technology evolves operators need more complex data centers with the ability to tackle these situations effectively. The flipside is that these constant changes have to be implemented efficiently despite mounting cost pressures. At the same time, planning and implementation cycles are becoming shorter and shorter, demanding an extremely flexible environment. Data center operators need to have profitable solutions that ensure maximum availability, suitability for consolidation and expansion, and maximum energy efficiency.
This scenario can be eased by implementing quality structured cabling solutions that is neutral in terms of application and in compliance with the relevant industry standards.

The numbers of Cat.6A deployments are at an all-time high, with the need for high performance cabling and advanced applications growing. With growing deployments in manufacturing and healthcare, there is a lot demand for industrial grade products that offer IP-54 and IP-67 grade of protection to protect against water splashes, dust and foreign particles. We see an increased deployment of fiber-optic systems including components and Pre-terminated Fiber (MPO/MTP) solutions in data centers. There has also been a demand for OM4 cabling. We believe this will be in line with the growing performance needs of data centers and networks.
