Cisco Optics Podcast Ep 56. The smartest data center operators use multi-mode fiber - do you? (5/7)

Multi-mode fiber has been the workhorse for fiber optic communication within a data center for years, as well as the choice for Ethernet backbones in office buildings. It has a rich history that goes all the way back to the first optical fiber standards when 100 megabits per second was a huge data rate. Anybody remember those days?
In Episode 56, we continue our conversation with Hao Dong, market technology development manager for Corning’s optical communications business. We get into the various multi-mode fiber standards, transceiver wavelengths, and future transceivers for multi-mode fiber.
One quick note: You'll hear Hao mention the need for a 100m reach fiber. Since we recorded this, Corning has released such a fiber. It's their ClearCurve OM4 XT multimode fiber.
Tune in to the latest episode of the Cisco Optics Podcast to hear about the latest trends and technical topics in the optics industry from experts at Cisco and the broader industry.
