Air Blown Fiber (ABF) is an alternative way to install fiber optic cable in a LAN environment. Instead of pulling standard fiber optic cable, ABF uses a method to blow fiber cable point-to-point through pre-installed tubes to anywhere on the network. The heart of the Sumitomo ABF system is a highway of tubes that can […]

With the growth of complex traffic traveling across the enterprise LAN, there is a need to simplify the underlying infrastructure for better performance. At the same time, network security needs to improve to combat internal and external threats. But how can IT realize the benefits of simplicity and security without compromising one or the other? […]

To assure the highest degree of LAN performance, there must be traffic management capabilities that balance bursty traffic, interactive traffic, real-time latency-sensitive traffic, and non-realtime traffic. Tellabs Optical LAN can accomplish the highest LAN performance through traffic segmentation, low latency and QoS mechanisms, while greatly improving network security compared to the legacy copper-based LAN alternative. […]

LAN Complications The useful life expectancy of traditional enterprise LAN infrastructure is short, historically being around five to seven years, while wireless technology continues to evolve in the 3-5 years range. At each one of these transitions, the switch and cable manufacturers expect you to completely rip-and-replace your hardware and infrastructure. Every time higher bandwidth, […]
