Yes, thanks. It was confusing me for a second because no, no almost one is terminating twinax in the server room.
I had IT company recommend to me a bunch of fiber cables for a cleanup I was doing. They had about 20 or 30 laser modules we would need, and however much fiber.
When they asked why I planned on doing copper, I told him because each run is three fucking feet.
I’m not sure if they just didn’t realize that’s not what fiber is for or they didn’t know that DAC existed.
- Aurornis 5mo agoMany people don’t know about DAC. Like the comment above I think they see the word copper and assume it means the twisted pair they’re familiar with.
- simulator5g 5mo agoThere's also a common misconception that copper means slow. Because when you have internet from a copper cable in the US, it usually sucks.
