In this article, Walsun will introduce the application of optical modulesin the data center computer room. As we all know, the construction of the data center computer room is a system project. It consists of the following parts: the host room (including network switches, server group, storage, data input, output wiring, communication area and network monitoring terminal, etc.), basic work room (including office, buffer room, corridor, changing room, etc.), first-type auxiliary room (including maintenance room, instrument room, spare parts room, storage medium storage room, data room), second category auxiliary room (including low-voltage power distribution, UPS power supply room, battery room, precision air conditioning system room, gas fire extinguishing equipment room, etc.), as well as third category auxiliary room ( including storage rooms, general restrooms, toilets, etc.).
A large number of network switches, server clusters, etc. are placed in the host room. They are the core of integrated wiring and information network equipment, as well as the data convergence center of the information network system. The connection between servers, the connection between switches, and the connection between servers and switches need to use Walsun’sdirect attach cables, active optical cables, optical modules, optical fiber patch cordsand other transmission carriers to realize data transmissionand intercommunication.
To set up a data center computer room, it is necessary to clarify the area of the computer room, the required equipment and quantity, design the network topology, purchase and configure related equipment. At present, self-built data center computer rooms need to have ISP qualifications and sign cooperation agreements with the three major network operators, and also need to invest a lot of time and cost.
With the increasing market demand for data transmission, IDC computer rooms can enhance the business competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises. The diversification of data center interconnection scenarios and the individualization of customer needs have given birth to different types of network equipment and transmission carriers (active optical cables, direct attach cable, optical modules, and optical fiber patch cords). Therefore, users are choosing related equipment or accessories, you need to make a selection according to the actual application scenario.
