Applications

• Add ultra-fast 40Gbps network connectivity to database, file or application servers and high-performance workstations
• Transmit full 40Gpbs network speeds to a remote terminal over longer distance than copper cabling
• Ideal for agile and high-demand data centers that require data security, no downtime, and infrastructure updates
• Supports secure setups - a direct fiber connection means no electronic interference, which can be a problem with RJ45 network cards
• Create a video/audio editing console with 40Gbps access to network storage
• Ideal for remote embedded industrial monitoring system, and high-speed video surveillance
