When it comes to providing seamless connectivity outside, any installation must overcome the challenges that come with being exposed to the elements. However, ensuring a high performance while outdoor infrastructure remains unaffected by adverse weather conditions is not always an easy task, especially with the growing impact of global warming to contend with too. We know that wind speed is a strong concern, as it can vary significantly day-to-day, and at different heights and locations.

The MDC connector by US Conec works as additional solution to the existing LC-XD and MTP/MTO connectors. It is far more suitable for cases where the use of MTP/MTO is not accepted and where density, modularity and cleanliness are an issue that needs to be addressed. The VSFF connector offers a performance enhancing, reliable option which meets the CPR B2ca standards for very high fire safety.

Growing data rates of 200G, 400G and 800G are shifting the focus on data center environments the way we knew it. The new connector is designed to leave ample room to scale-up to meet future demands. Its dual fiber quality i.e. allows a three times higher port density than other connectors, such as the LC.

HUBER+SUHNER recently launched its new SENCITY® Urban 200 MIMO 4x4 directional antenna, an excellent solution for wireless operators and installers in the small cell industry who require increased network coverage in a limited space. The SENCITY Urban 200 antenna increases the data throughput with its 4x4 MIMO configuration and provides the constant high-speed wireless access and connectivity that is needed for 5G C Band applications. The new compact solution is perfect for environments where space is reduced and where the antenna placement needs to be discreet.

Currently just over 27% of the UK currently has full fiber coverage. Other European countries boast over 60% penetration rates. The UK government see the benefit of a full fiber infrastructure, that is often built by a range of forward thinking Altnets - not forgetting the work of Openreach. There now is an exciting opportunity for providers to deliver full-fiber broadband to more areas of the UK.

The popularity of bus travel has helped to drive a digital transformation on board, particularly for long journeys between large cities. But the expectations of passengers are demanding, which poses operators with a challenge to overcome - how can you keep passengers connected while on the road?

We now live in a digitally-driven world, where virtual applications, technology advancements and changing human behaviour are causing connectivity demands to soar. This is putting more pressure than ever before on data centers to handle the increase in generated data, maximise uptime and guarantee high performance. To ensure success, your data center must be stable, secure, and space-efficient. Structured cabling solutions play a key role in making this happen, which is why we have created a new, comprehensive white paper that highlights the full potential that structured cabling offers.

Reliable Wi-Fi connectivity has become a common expectation when travelling by train, with passengers expecting the same level of connectivity on board that they experience while at home. As trains become more and more connected, the demand for high data throughput is on the rise. Operational systems on trains have also developed significantly, such as live streaming of 4K/8K CCTV, while the train communication systems require stable connectivity to function too.

For rail operators, passenger capacity and comfort are key. This means that modern train designs need to utilize as much space as possible inside and outside the carriage, leaving little room for roof mounted equipment, such as antennas. This is especially true for double decker trains, which need plenty of space inside the carriage to keep both floors of passengers comfortable.
