Webinar on demand

Rapidly advancing digitization in almost all areas of industry continues unabated the trend toward fiber optics as the basis of a high-performance communications infrastructure. In the wake of the Internet of Things and Industry 4.0, fiber optics are finding their way into many new environments and applications. Whether it's a data center, building network or industrial application, deciding on the "right" connector technology has a huge impact on operational reliability. And this is where 3M Expanded Beam Optical (EBO) technology opens up new possibilities.

In our OSI Webtalk, you will learn:

  • What requirements increasing digitalization places on connectors.
  • What makes this Expanded Beam concept unique for fiber optic connectors
  • How 3MTM EBO contributes to increasing operational reliability
  • The wide range of applications for which 3MTM EBO can be used
  • Whether this technology will revolutionize the data center
