Enterprise data centers have an insatiable appetite for bandwidth. This is being driven by virtualization, cloud computing, storage area networks and a host of other factors that are causing a steady proliferation of fiber connections and ever-faster links.... Multi-fiber push-on("MPO") fiber trunks have become the default cabling solution to these ever-increasing data center bandwidth requirements. Because they are a natural fit for parallel optics, these fiber links are compact, pre-terminated, able to handle bandwidth all the way up to 100 Gbps [gigabits per second], and even plug-and-play by design. 2, record 1, English, - multi%2Dfibre%20push%2Don%20fibre%20trunk
