Best Practices for Data Center Deployment Testing

This webinar focuses on data center cabling and will give installers and technicians an overview of data center test requirements and procedures and how to use Viavi test equipment.

Overview

Massive fiber construction (inside and outside) coupled with technician inexperience with data center requirements have exposed some basic issues, including longer test times, unfamiliar test requirements, and operation of new test equipment. 

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • Data center architecture overview
  • The basics of data center cabling – inside the building, between the data centers (DCI) and metro/long haul
  • The fundamentals of multi-fiber cables and their connectors – MPO, MMC
  • MPO/MMC cleaning and inspection
  • Multi-fiber cable testing (length, loss, polarity)
  • Review hyperscaler requirements for multi-fiber test of 12, 16, and 24 fiber cables
  • DCI bidirectional testing (IL/ORL/OTDR)
  • Metro/long haul test requirements for IL, ORL, OTDR, CD, PMD
