AMP NETCONNECT: Cabling Systems for Data Centers & Storage Area Networks (SANs)

Tags:
storage management

Overview As anyone with an ear to the ground of data communications will tell the user, the loudest buzz is coming from a growing collection of applications dedicated to data storage. Now that expansive optical networks are being deployed and the cost of bandwidth is dropping on even global transmissions, off-site data storage is a viable business option. Storage Area Networks (SANs) and Storage Service Providers (SSPs) are popping up and are gobbling up server and storage products manufactured by NASDAQ favorites such as EMC and Cisco.
