Holding out for 40GBASE-T and Category 8
If you need to deploy 10Gb/s today, 10GBASE-T is certainly well positioned as a more cost effective technology than other alternatives for switch-to-server and switch-to-switch connectivity for distances up to 100 meters.
While still a few years off, the ability to hold out for 40GBASE-T and Category 8 depends on your specific situation. There is some good news, as well as some considerations.
40GBASE-T is specified with transmission performance up to 2 GHz (four times the bandwidth of Category 6A) with a lot more stringent alien crosstalk requirements. To meet these requirements, you are looking at a shielded cabling system, similar in design to Belden's 10GX shielded cabling but specified to 2 GHZ.
40GBASE-T and Category 8 will also likely be a pre-terminated solution. The good thing is that the cable diameter will likely not be any larger than existing Category 6A.
The maximum reach for 40GBASE T is 30 meters, which will be sufficient for most switch-to-server connections in a data center for EoR topologies. The good news is that that because of the shorter distances, the power consumption for 40GBASE-T should be no more than 10GBASE-T.
As you look at the considerations and your timeline to upgrade, we have the experts on hand to discuss all of your options and help you determine your best course of action. Please don’t hesitate to ask us any questions about deploying 10GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T by calling 86-755-36946668, or by sending an email to info@sopto.com.
