AFL Hyperscale is the first cabling and connectivity solution provider focused on the specific needs of data centers. Hyperscale, colocation, and enterprise data center requirements can shift dramatically and quickly. Keeping up with such a rapidly changing landscape presents a variety of challenges. Both agility and adaptability are needed to succeed in hyperscale enterprises. In order to achieve this, the infrastructure needs to be high-performance, flexible, and modular so that you can move quickly and adapt to network upgrades or expansions as and when needed. Our U-Series has been specifically designed with these requirements in mind, to bring you the most reliable, high-density, modular solution on the market.
Reduce Latency, Increase Bandwidth
Hyperscale, Cloud, and Colocation providers require physical layer solutions that reduce latency and downtime, but they also need to be able to increase their connectivity, density, and bandwidth to meet growing data requirements. Inside the data hall, it makes the most sense (both commercially and economically) to bring in more fibre than what is needed to meet current demand. This negates the need for continual fiber cable installations when density upgrades are needed and effectively future proofs your network. It also makes more space available in ducts and fibre raceways.
Easy to Install and Grow
Consisting of high-capacity housings, easy-to-install cassettes, and high-performance assemblies, the U-Series enables you to scale your network, with fast, easy, plug-and-play installation. Cassette options include pre-terminated, MPO, and splice. All of which are fast and simple to install with secure easy-access lock-and-release mechanisms and an innovative service latch – making patching, cleaning or moves, adds, and changes (MACs) easier than ever. Series As well as easy deployment, modular cassettes allow you to scale your network almost instantly to whatever requirement fits demand.
High-Performance & High-Speed
The AFL Hyperscale U-Series cassettes can support BASE-8, BASE-12 and BASE-24 with an MPO interface for full connection flexibility, with high-performance MPO connectors that will support network speeds from 40G to 400G and beyond. Available in multi-mode and Single mode depending on the transmission distance required.
U-Series, an End-to-End Solution
End-to-end, deploying the U-Series is an innovative and flexible approach that enables high fiber counts to be easily distributed to lower fiber counts across different data center environments, which means your network can scale as customer demand continues to grow.
