RiT Technologies, a provider of intelligent
infrastructure solutions, announced a major new addition to its
industry-leading line of fiber optic solutions for managed installations: the
PatchView Xlight MPO-MPO Tray.

 

The new product helps datacenters prepare for migration
to a next-generation 40G/100G network by using 12-fiber cabling systems and MPO
Connectors.

 

The Xlight Fiber Optic product line addresses rising
datacenter demand for higher optical port density and a rapid installation
process, a trend which has developed in step with the datacenter increased use
of MPO connections.

 

Xlight is designed to bring the benefits of advanced
fiber optic solutions to RiT’s proven intelligent infrastructure management
(IIM) concept to state-of-the-art datacenters, including, among others, its
Automated Provisioning Tool, Active I graphical interface and strong reporting
engine.

 

“We are very excited to launch this important new
product – another industry-first in line with our commitment to bring leading
hardware and software products to the market,” said Eran Ayzik, president
and CEO, RiT.

 

“Since the beginning of the year, we have been
rolling out our unique line of managed Xlight fiber optic components, including
an intelligent LC-MPO cassette, LC-LC cassette and others, and customer
reaction has been encouraging. The Xlight product family enables us to address
some of the latest trends in infrastructure installation, and to solve the
difficult management challenges of today’s high-density, mission-critical
datacenters,” added Ayzik.  

 

In designing recent Xlight products, RiT
leveraged the Company’s industry-leading experience and multi-disciplinary
know-how in the areas of IIM, fiber optic technologies and datacenter networking
requirements.

 

To support next-generation data rates, RiT’s fiber optic
solutions are offered in Multi-Mode OM4 fibers to increase bandwidth and long
distance channels, and Single-Mode fibers with low-water pick and bend
insensitive capabilities.

 

Xlight MPO-MPO Tray allows installers to work with MPO
cords, FOCIS 5D standard compliant comprising 12 fibers, is fully compatible
with 40G and 100G IEEE 802.3 applications, and is comprised of MPO adapters in
1U of rack space (key-up to key-down).

 

When inserting RiT’s unique Xlight MPO-MPO Jumper into
the Xlight MPO-MPO Tray port with PatchView capability, both optical and
electrical connections are simultaneously made, allowing the RiT PatchView
system to scan all the wiring center’s fiber optic connections and report the
connectivity results to the network administrator on-line and in real-time.
