Media converters can help companies future proof the data center

Combined, these factors are leading to a need for more flexible data center networks. At the same time, big data and similar trends are also creating data throughput challenges, leading to considerable operational challenges.

Dealing with new bandwidth demands
Installing fiber-optic cabling systems for key interconnects, such as between storage and server environments or for backhaul, can prove incredibly important as network demands change in the data center. Using fiber in such a manner can lead to major interoperability challenges. However, using media converters in the data center can alleviate this problem, positioning IT leaders to maximize network performance effectively.
