As hyperscale facilities shift toward 1.6T Ethernet and prepare for 3.2T, the methodology for network testing must be upgraded. Validation of High-Speed Ethernet (HSE) and data center fabrics needs to take place across all layers, from OSI Layer 0 (the medium) to 7 (the application, including security). This means that we need to not only […]
Advances are taking place across a wide range of technologies. At ECOC 2026, we saw leaps forward in high-speed Ethernet (HSE), co-packaged optics (CPO) and silicon photonics (SiPh), along with fiber density, multifiber technologies, and alternative designs such as hollow-core fiber (HCF), alongside advances in peripheral but critical systems like quantum security. This is driving […]
January arrives with a different kind of energy. The decorations are packed away, our stomachs have had their pick, pace is steadier, and the attention starts turning from celebration to intention. It is also the time for fresh starts and setting the foundation for what comes next. In this spirit of renewal, TDC NET enters […]
