SYSTIMAX® HD and UD ULL fiber panels solution guide

Product catalog summary
Introduction
The SYSTIMAX® HD and UD ULL fiber panels solution guide outlines high-density and ultra-high-density fiber panel solutions with ultra-low-loss capabilities, crucial for supporting higher speeds in data centers and paving the way to 100 Gbps and beyond.

Ultra-Low Loss Capabilities
Ultra-low-loss (ULL) fiber solutions are vital for achieving faster and longer links. With global data center IP traffic projected to reach 15.3 zettabytes annually by 2021, advanced fiber connectivity solutions are necessary.

Product Features
SYSTIMAX ULL fiber solutions include HD and UD fiber panels with superior port density and easy management. The split-tray design allows open access to individual fibers, facilitating modifications without disrupting live channels. The modular design supports migration from 10G to 100G within the same footprint.

Compatibility and Flexibility
The panels are compatible with G2 ULL modules, DM modules, or 360DP adapter panels for LC or MPO connections. They can be paired with TeraSPEED® singlemode and LazrSPEED® OM4 and OM5 wideband multimode cabling.

Intelligent Management
Embedded intelligence through CommScope’s imVision® AIM solution enables real-time monitoring and management of the physical layer down to the port level.

Specifications and Configurations
The guide details specifications for various panel configurations, including HD and UD panels, iPatch panels, and their accessories, outlining modular design, port capacities, and cabling compatibility.
