Facing 400G, the challenge is to provide, add, and support high-density, ultra-large bandwidth applications in very large data centers that require a lot of space to accommodate a large number of cables. Low insertion loss, high fiber density, easy installation and stable performance are all necessary considerations for a 400G next-generation data center.
400GB Network Transmission, if the Mtp/mpo connector we know as a connection interface, can use 32, 16 or 8 core fiber transmission, and the 2017 birth of the CS Connector, 400G brings a higher density of fiber optic connection applications.
The CS connector is a new dual-core connector for the 400G next-generation data center, with an appearance similar to the LC double-core connector, but it has some other notable features.
? Its most notable feature is the mini-size, which has a dual core size of only 8mm, and a 36% reduction compared to the LC dual-core connector 13mm, which means higher cabling density is feasible.
? Equipped with push lever design, the adapter panel eliminates the need to retain the space that holds the finger in the socket, maximizing the density of the panel adapter, thereby increasing the cabling density.
? Designed for QSFP-DD (200g/400g) applications, it is also suitable for applications such as OSFP (800G), so compatibility can be provided even in future higher-speed 800G transmissions.
? It is suitable for use in more commonly used 1.25mm inserts, making them universal and without high cost risk.
Currently, Ipdvd (Optec) is one of the few manufacturers that can provide Senko CS connectors on the market, and provides customized services for the related cable assemblies.
