CommScope’s Propel is an end-to-end, high-speed fiber platform that includes modular high-density fiber panels, modules, adapter packs, and fiber assemblies. Propel provides a single-source structured cabling and connectivity family with all the bandwidth, headroom, design flexibility, and ease of installation needed to keep pace with your evolving data center demands. With MPO16 and MPO8 module granularity, networks can seamlessly migrate to more efficient 400G/800G deployments, while fully supporting legacy eight-, four-, and two-fiber applications.

Judge’s Comment: “Propel by CommScope appears to be an upgrade over previous equipment models. Propel allows the ability to progress with the new standards being implemented with OM5 fiber. From an install side and planning, Propel can be deployed while still using legacy fiber and data centers can upgrade while devices reach lifecycle ends.”
