Panduit Corp., a global provider of data center solutions, announced the launch of its new HD Flex 2.0 Fiber Cabling System, which is engineered to provide high fiber density and serviceability for data centers.

The latest addition to Panduit's line of fiber solutions, the HD Flex 2.0 Fiber Cabling System, has been designed for integration with existing fiber infrastructure by accommodating fiber cassettes and fiber adapter panels (FAPs) with different port counts within the same innovative enclosure and panel. 6-port or 12-port cassettes and FAPs can be deployed in various combinations to achieve up to 144-fibers (LC) or 864-fibers (MPO) per rack unit. This solution enables port migration from 10G to 25/40/50/100G in the same RU space without replacing existing fibers.

The HD Flex 2.0 Fiber Cabling System also provides a path for adopting Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches and ACI 40Gig and spine-leaf architecture with a physical infrastructure. It reportedly offers lower installation and test costs through the utilization of 12-port cassettes, as fewer cassettes are required per RU of rack space.

Available for immediate delivery, Panduit's HD Flex 2.0 integrates with current and future systems through a full line of fiber enclosures, patch panels, cable managers, and zero RU brackets, which allows end-users to deploy HD Flex cassettes and FAPs anywhere within the organization.
