With the advent of higher cables assembly is a very complex subject

 10GBase-T offers the ability to field-terminate, while SFP+ Direct Attach cables cannot be field-terminated.San Francisco, CA, August 22, 2013 FiberStore has updated its line of OM3 OM4 10G fiber cables with the new OM3 Indoor/Outdoor Plenum distribution cables. The new simplex to 24 strand multimode 50/125 10G OM3 indoor/outdoor plenum distribution cables supports installation where small size, lightweight, and versatile installation capability are required for ducts, risers, and air handing spaces.cables assembly is a very complex subject. It requires equal measures of expertise in the areas of connectors, cables and assembly. ODU meets all these requirements in full.

With the advent of higher channel rates in subsea cables systems, operators need to backhaul larger and larger capacities between the cable landing stations and their Point of Presences (PoPs).  Therefore there is today a bigger than ever requirement on the capacity that can be supported by a terrestrial transmission system.  Using 100G coherent technology, most of the current optical transport systems based on Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) can transport 88 x 100G per fiber pair.  There are intense activities within different standardization bodies to agree on the next channel rate beyond 100G – 400G and 1T being the two figures in competition.4832 Companies  An agreement on the bit rate selection is, however, not expected before 2013, while the final specification of the next IEEE Ethernet signal is not expected for several years.  This is backed by the history of high-speed optics: the past teaches us that about three years separate the first field trials (2007 for 100G) and the early adopter phase (2010).  Another three years separate the early adopter phase and the generalized deployment phase (which, for 100G, should begin in 2013).
