Companies mentioned

Corning has introduced its new GlassWorks Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions, aimed at providing a comprehensive portfolio for data center infrastructure to support generative AI. This offering includes the recently launched Contour Flow Cable, designed to improve deployment efficiency and meet the increasing connectivity demands associated with AI technologies.

Operators in the field face significant challenges related to scale and density, both within data center and across long-haul networks. The GlassWorks AI initiatives are set to address these challenges with a range of tools and technologies, including the Contour Flow Cable, which can accommodate double the fiber in the same cable diameter.

In data center, there is a growing reliance on clusters of graphical processing units (GPUs) that necessitate advanced optical infrastructure. Corning's solutions include high-density cables and flexible optical hardware that allow for a substantially larger number of fiber connections per rack unit compared to traditional connectors.

Sean Kelly, Vice President and Business Director for Corning’s data center Business Unit, highlighted the potential of GlassWorks AI to enhance operational capabilities, stating, “Our new Contour Flow cable exemplifies our ability to deliver cost-effective solutions that meet changing infrastructure needs.”

The Contour Flow Cable utilizes Corning’s SMF-28 Contour fiber, which is 40% smaller and offers improved bend performance, facilitating better integration into high-density environments.

Corning will showcase its GlassWorks AI offerings, including the Contour Flow Cable and related technologies, at the upcoming Optical Fiber Communication Conference and Exposition (OFC) from April 1-3 in San Francisco, CA.
