FS Participates in SC18 as a SCinet Contributor

Nov. 13th, FS News - FS, a networking solution provider for data centers, enterprises and ISP networks, was a bronze SCinet contributor at the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis (SC18), held earlier this month in Dallas, Texas. FS was invited as a contributor to SCinet, the dedicated high-capacity network infrastructure supporting the conference.

SCinet is a collaborative effort by 225 volunteer experts from 85 organizations that span industry, academia, and government. This year, SCinet delivered 4.02 terabits per second of bandwidth across 1 million square feet in the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas.

FS was recognized as a bronze contributor for supplying fiber patching solutions to SCinet. FS supplied modular fiber enclosure panels, MTP fiber cassette modules, and MTP trunk cables for their fiber patching systems, all at a reduced cost for use in the SCinet Network Operations Center.

"FS products used for the rack-to-rack fiber connections allowed SCinet to increase the density of the number of connections in the existing rack-footprint, as well as cut down on the time needed to build and tear down the physical parts of the network," said JP Velders, SCinet routing team co-lead.
