Data Center Network Architecture
Networking within data centers is a fundamental aspect of ensuring efficient and reliable communication among numerous interconnected devices and systems. Effective data center network design and data center network architecture play pivotal roles in optimizing data flow, enhancing scalability, and improving overall performance. As networking in data centers continues to evolve, the emphasis on seamless connectivity and high bandwidth becomes increasingly vital, enabling data centers to meet the growing demands of modern enterprise and cloud computing environments.
Networking in Data Centers
Server network connectivity is a critical aspect of modern data center operations, serving as the backbone that supports extensive data processing, storage, and transfer activities. High-speed connections facilitate real-time data access and transfer, enabling data centers to support the growing need for compute.
By integrating innovative network connectivity solutions, data center builders can achieve their goals to:
Get online faster
Improve uptime reliability
Maximize space and energy use
Find efficiencies in install and support
Efficient cabling, robust switches, and innovative connector solutions are vital for establishing a network infrastructure that can adapt to evolving requirements and increasing workloads of today and challenges of tomorrow.
Key Data Center Networking Solutions
Miniaturized Data Connections
Transfer robust amounts of data and increasingly faster speeds, without taking extra space.
Today's data center networks are being asked to transmit data at lightning speed and within less physical area. Unlike legacy connectors, HARTING data transfer connectivity components help make it possible to meet the challenges of today and the requirements of tomorrow.
Next-Gen
✓ Built with size in mind
✓ Supports Cat. 6A performance for speeds up to 1/10 Gbit/s
✓ Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities for more functionality in less space
✓ 70% smaller than the RJ45 connector
HARTING ix Industrial® with 70 % smaller device socket than conventional RJ45.
Varioboot for Data Center Networking
Compact, agile, and cost-effective RJ45.
The HARTING Varioboot is a standard RJ45 overmolded patch cable with the unique ability to adjust the orientation and angle of the connector. This simplifies cable routing in tight locations, such as crowded control cabinets and/or tight electrical enclosures.
