Rosenberger Optical Solutions & Infrastructure (Rosenberger OSI), expert in fiber connectivity, cabling solutions and infrastructure services, announces that it has successfully completed a cabling project in collaboration with Modul'Data Center (subsidiary of IP Energy), in the largest private artificial intelligence research center in France, NAVER LABS Europe, located in the Grenoble region.This new infrastructure offers better performance and greater possibilities for evolution.NAVER LABS Europe is owned by the Korean company NAVER, the leading Korean Internet portal (75% of the "search" market) and leader in e-commerce, fintech, cloud and digital services.During the renovation of the buildings in the center, purchased in 2018, it emerged that the fibers running through the buildings were definitively obsolete.Following a brief selection process, the company then chose Rosenberger OSI and Modul'Data Center for the modernization of its fiber optic infrastructure.After the installation of the ducts, Rosenberger OSI and the installation partner Modul'Data Center were able to define a tailor-made offer designed according to the expectations and needs of NAVER LABS Europe.Product selection criteria had to take security into account, offer the best possible performance and scalability.Furthermore, the solution had to offer an attractive price.MPO technology was therefore recommended for this project: thanks to the multi-fiber connectors, it offers the ideal conditions for the creation of high-performance data networks in order to obtain greater bandwidth and satisfy subsequent potential needs.This technology also makes scaling and migrating to 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet network operations easier and more efficient with officially certified connectors for these speeds.The technical teams connected the different buildings with pre-connectorized multimode MPO fibers (OM4) (connections from 50 to 150 m).These trunks were connected to high-density (HD) cassettes and integrated into Rosenberger OSI's PreCONNECT SMAP-G2 HD cassettes, a highly modular 19-inch panel system that uses little plastic for cabling in data centers and others. buildings.With a density of up to 72 Duplex LC or MTP ports per unit of height, the front panel is maximized.Partial Front Panels (FAPs) and MTP modules can be easily mounted without any tools and secured with clips.The square PreCONNECT interfaces also allow you to attach trunk cables, again without the need for tools.Depending on use and mounting, a variety of rear panel solutions are available for cable entry and attachment.The panels can be adjusted in depth using the 19 ″ mounting rails and can therefore be adapted to different rack layouts.Despite an environment classified as construction site and outdated buildings without the adequate structures for technological solutions and which generated a little more complexity during construction, the interventions took place in two stages and lasted a month, with day supervision. per day by Rosenberger OSI of the technical teams of Modul 'Data Center (subsidiary of IP Energy) for the activation of the construction site and the optical tests, carried out successfully.The new fiber equipment of the research center is now fully operational.WeChangeIT FORUM 2022 The annual Data Manager eventIT / OT HEALTH & SAFETY Planning and organization of workOn-demand Webinar - Cycling and technology: when the road climbs, you can't hide!(E.
