The shift towards higher data rates in networks, with a transition from duplex to parallel - be it via 8 or 16 fiber-based systems, has made applications more susceptible to loss. However, opting for 4-way or 8-way breakouts presents advantages that go beyond merely employing patch cords. Organizing architectures that align with trunk configurations can result in energy efficiency, lower latency, and sustainability benefits. These benefits cater to current and future requirements. Choosing the right building blocks to install behind the wall can simplify the entire process while offering continuous benefits.
