Taking a Comprehensive Look at Fiber Optic Cabling

In its specialist magazine CONNECTIONS 67, R&M describes, among other things, the requirements placed on fiber optic infrastructures for today and tomorrow.

R&M, the globally active Swiss developer and provider of high-end infrastructure solutions for data and communications networks, highlights the importance of fiber optic cabling. In the latest issue of the specialist magazine CONNECTIONS, R&M experts discuss the influential aspects of current and future fiber optic infrastructures. «Good connectivity infrastructures are becoming increasingly relevant to society,» emphasizes CFO Martina Dimmler in the editorial of CONNECTIONS 67.

In the cover story, CMO Andreas Rüsseler explains the holistic approach under the term «Total Connectivity». R&M advocates always keeping an eye on fiber optic cabling from the core network to the outlet in the home. Andreas Rüsseler emphasizes: «It is crucial that providers, cities, industries, municipal utilities, the construction and real estate sectors as well as other responsible parties develop an ideal understanding of connectivity. It’s about more than just fiber optic cables in streets, buildings, or data centers. It’s about making it easier for people to participate directly and unhindered in digital transformation.» R&M shows how this approach can be implemented in practice.

Another focal point of CONNECTIONS No. 67 is expanding broadband coverage in rural areas. In this area too, R&M recommends a holistic approach that bundles resources, strives for synergy effects, and ensures quality. It can meet the needs of municipalities, network operators, construction companies, and the installation requirements of older property. In addition to the latest durable outdoor products, R&M contributes international experience, complete solutions, and services such as pre-termination. There are reports on the turnkey deployment of adapted PoP cabins, in a recent case with a facade specially designed for a Black Forest town.

The specialist magazine also sheds light on the AI revolution from various perspectives.
