什么是暗纤维?

2024年4月11日,星期四

几十年来,, industry insiders – from network operators to carriers – have recognized the advantages of high-bandwidth, 可伸缩暗光纤. However, what was once the domain of telecom players is now captivating a broader audience. Businesses across diverse sectors are increasingly turning to dark fiber to bolster their networking and technology infrastructure, 被它的灵活性所吸引, 安全性和性能. 从专业服务公司到医疗保健系统, 从政府机构到教育机构, organizations from a range of industries are eagerly embracing the benefits of dark fiber to meet their networking needs. 

暗纤维vs. 点燃纤维

Before exploring dark fiber’s advantages, it’s important to answer a few questions. 首先,“什么是暗纤维?简单地说, dark fiber is pre-existing underground infrastructure that does not yet have the hardware or software that enables it to run services. While fiber optic cables that are actively sending data via light wavelengths are considered lit, 其余闲置的纤维被认为是未亮或暗的. 那么暗纤维和亮纤维的区别是什么呢? 为什么一家公司会选择暗光纤而不是亮光纤呢?

暗纤维有几个优点. 首先,暗纤维提供 无与伦比的可伸缩性, allowing businesses to customize their bandwidth according to their evolving needs without being restricted by the limitations of lit fiber. 把它看作是控制你自己的(带宽)命运. 不像灯光服务, where upgrades frequently entail lengthy waiting periods caused by reliance on outside service providers, dark fiber empowers companies to swiftly grow their network as the demand grows. 例如, if a company desires an additional 100 gigabits of service across their fiber optic network to meet increased demand, they can seamlessly implement this upgrade without dependence on a network provider. 通过管理他们的基础设施, 公司可以有效地增加产能, 无论是当天手术还是周末手术. Dark fiber’s agility in increasing bandwidth ensures that businesses can adapt to evolving demands promptly. 这种敏捷性扩展到大量带宽需求, 比如需要额外的400gb流量. 暗纤维提供了无与伦比的灵活性和控制性, 允许企业有效地扩展其网络基础设施.

其次,深色纤维提供 更低的延迟, 保证更快、更可靠的数据传输, 对于需要实时响应的应用程序来说,哪一点至关重要. 不像传统的商业互联网服务, 暗光纤提供了从端到端更直接的路径, 消除不必要的站点,避免造成延误. 选择深色纤维, 企业可以保证其数据的最有效路径, 增强性能并减少响应时间. 此外, 暗光纤确保私有网络, enabling businesses to swiftly detect and resolve internal issues without relying on ISPs to troubleshoot potential obstacles. Opting for dark fiber enhances 控制 和安全 over network operations, as companies retain full ownership and management of their infrastructure, 最小化对外部服务提供者的依赖. 

在安全性方面,暗纤维作为一种 异常安全的 option. With dark fiber, there’s a substantially reduced risk of interference from external sources. 暗光纤为企业提供了无与伦比的控制和安全性, as they maintain authority over their facilities and utilize dedicated fibers, 确保额外的保护层. 这种低延迟的混合, 私人网络, and heightened security makes dark fiber an invaluable asset for organizations prioritizing speed, 可靠性, 以及网络基础设施的响应能力.

对于寻求更大灵活性的公司, 表演, 控制, 和安全, 暗纤维提供了一个令人信服的选择. 现在我们已经回顾了暗纤维和亮纤维的优势, 让我们来探索一下暗纤维是如何工作的.

暗纤维是如何起作用的? 

Dark fiber works by allowing companies or organizations to lease or purchase unused optical fibers within the fiber optic cable infrastructure. 然后企业安装自己的网络设备, 比如发射机, 接收器, 放大器, 和多路复用器, at each end of the fiber to activate and manage the transmission of data.

一旦网络设备安装和配置, data signals are sent through the fiber optic cables in the form of light pulses. 这些光脉冲穿过玻璃纤维, 由于全内反射而从内壁反弹, 直到他们到达目的地. 在接收端, the light signals are converted back into digital data for processing by the connected devices.

暗纤维是如何形成的?

在设计暗光纤网络时, organizations have the freedom to select the technology that best aligns with their needs, 无论是DWDM(密集波分复用)技术, 多协议标签交换, 或以太网. 这种灵活性扩展到各种网络配置, 包括线性, 点对点, 环配置, multi-count, 单一的一对, 还有完整的导管装置, 迎合特定的组织需求.

暗光纤vs. 点燃纤维

从商业的角度来看, 暗光纤的优点——带宽灵活, 性能优越, and enhanced security—outweigh those of lit fiber across multiple industries. 

网络 operators and carriers were among the earliest to recognize dark fiber’s utility, 特别是在缺乏基础设施的地区. Leasing dark fiber from providers like FiberLight enabled network operators and carriers to effectively support their customers, 并继续满足他们的基础设施需求.

电信行业之外, dark fiber offers distinct advantages for hyperscalers and data center providers, 尤其是那些有多个校区的学校. The rapid growth of cloud-based technologies and the demand for high-speed data transmission has driven a 数据中心建设蓬勃发展,通常在偏远地区分散的地点. Deploying dark fiber connectivity enables these data centers to offer high-speed networking services across dispersed locations, 拥有高达100g的网络连接, 加强客户服务,满足不断变化的需求.

The benefits of dark fiber also extend to state and local government agencies, 随着大型企业寻求网络扩张. 例如, 想想横跨德克萨斯州的地区学区, or a software company in California with multiple campuses separated by public rights of way or connectivity challenges. 暗纤维有效地弥补了这种差距, allowing enterprises to interconnect campuses and provide high-speed networking services across locations.

在金融等行业, 游戏, 和医疗, 速度很重要, 暗光纤的低延迟被证明是无价的. 暗光纤网络确保了快速的交易, 无缝的游戏体验, 并及时传输医疗数据,以便及时诊断. 以其无与伦比的性能和灵活性, dark fiber serves as the backbone for robust and scalable networking solutions across diverse industries.
