One of the most critical measures for data centers is network availability. The most sophisticated data centers seek Tier IV reliability of 99.995% network availability (Uptime Institute). Still, all of the redundancy and advanced power and cooling measures available are worth nothing if the cable, connectivity and cable management systems are inferior and lead to network downtime.
For over 50 years, ADC has provided cable, connectivity and cable management solutions for the world’s most sophisticated networks, helping carriers deliver 99.999% availability for millions of customers. The same ADC technology, practices, and solutions are at work today in enterprise data centers worldwide. With TrueNet, you have an infrastructure that anticipates change, provides complete protection, and delivers the bandwidth and reliability you need for your high value data.
The Entrance Room (ER) is the location for access provider equipment and demarcation points as well as the interface with campus cabling systems; larger data centers may require multiple ERs. ADC solutions for the ER provide termination, splice, storage and protection for service provider handoffs and More...
The choice of backbone cabling plays a large part in the throughput and availability of all services for the enterprise. Backbone cabling not only connects the main Entrance Room to the Main Distribution Area (MDA), but is also used to connect the MDA to the Telecom Room, to a secondary Entrance Room, More...
TIA-942 presents the cross-connect architecture as the best practice for conducting moves, adds and changes for active equipment such as routers, backbone LAN and SAN devices, switches, PBXs, multiplexers and other equipment in the main distribution area. ADC TrueNet® connectivity solutions offer More...
Achieving maximum bandwidth and uptime in the data center requires horizontal cabling backed by ADC’s advanced technology, materials and manufacturing processes. Horizontal cable is used to connect Horizontal Distribution Areas (HDA) to Zone Distribution Areas and to Equipment Distribution Areas. More...
