The need for reliable networks has never been greater. Emerging technologies, like the IoT, AR, autonomous vehicles, and advancements in 5G have seen a surge in high-speed bandwidth requirements. The COVID-19 pandemic further accelerated the need for fast and flawless connectivity in recent years as more people stayed at home and remote working and online learning became the norm.
One way that giant data-focused companies like Amazon and Google manage this massive data traffic and reliably deliver their services to their billions of customers is through the use of hyperscale data centers. These data centers usually feature all-fiber infrastructures because fiber optic cables will typically carry more data faster than copper cables, especially over long distances.
