The Importance of Structured Cabling

With more and more new data centers popping up everyday, structured cabling design and installation have become increasingly more important.   With increased data rates and larger cable counts, the debate on the pros and cons of fiber optic cable and copper cable in the industry has become more pronounced.  While copper is less expensive, easier to install and more readily available, fiber can carry a lot more data with speeds much faster than copper — all the while being thinner and weighing much less than copper cable. However, if your focus is PoE based, telephone, or surveillance, copper offers the distinct advantage of delivering both power and data to your devices.

While both fiber optic and copper cable each have their own set of pros and cons for different on your applications, it seems that combining the two in the data center on some level is imminent.  OCC products are designed with this synergy in mind.  The new OCC high density Procyon solution has been architected to provide both copper and fiber connectivity with the highest density available on the market, with novel cable management features to ease your high density operating experience.  Our Procyon solution offers customers the best of both worlds in fiber optic cable and copper cable.
