Go!Foton unveils reconfigurable fiber adapter extension arm for PEACOC system
Go!Foton, a specialist in optical components and network connectivity systems for carriers and data centers, displayed its latest enhancements to its PEACOC [Platform with Enhanced Access to Compact Optical Connectors], the company’s innovative fiber connectivity management platform, at this month’s OFC 2022 conference and exhibition (Mar. 6-10) at the San Diego Convention Center.
“PEACOC reshaped the fiber connectivity landscape when it was first introduced just a few years ago. When we launched PEACOC, we knew that it was a game-changer,” said Go!Foton CEO and president Dr. Simin Cai. “We’re very proud that it’s more than lived up to its initial promise: delivering simple, error-free, scalable high density connectivity management.”
With its patented spreadable adapters, the PEACOC fiber patch panel uniquely allows tool-less access for up to 144 LC simplex connectors in just 1RU of rackspace.
In terms of the platform extension, at OFC 2022, Go!Foton CTO Dr. David Z. Chen stated:
“We’re excited to announce that we’ve taken our original vision for this trailblazing platform even further.
Through the addition of a field replaceable or reconfigurable adapter arm that allows combining any adapter type – including LC, SC, SN, CS, MDC, and MPO -- on the same cassette, PEACOC now provides network operators with the freedom to easily configure their own patch panels on the fly.
This new and improved PEACOC with reconfigurable spreadable adapter arms is 100% backward-compatible with existing PEACOC deployments.”
Go!Foton contends its highly versatile PEACOC fiber platform is unique among high density solutions for providing easy access to both the front and rear connectors at the same time, and from the same side of the rack.
