Comprehensive data centers solutions

  • Virtual Reality. Augmented Reality. 5G. IoT. The smart home. Automated cars. Remote surgery. All require enhanced performance, demanding increased fiber optics, faster data transmission, ample power, and robust computing. 
  • Reliable, secure, and adaptable infrastructure is crucial. Data centres, often overlooked, are vital for communities, storing, communicating, and transporting vast amounts of data. As data volume grows, data centres become even more critical, especially with next-gen applications. 
  • Yet, many current data centres are outdated and inefficient. Slow or unreliable data access leads to decreased customer satisfaction, revenue loss, and inaccessible vital services.

We focus on developing cutting-edge solutions to address the ever-growing bandwidth concerns:

ULTRA HIGH DENSITY SOLUTIONS

UHD FlexRibbon™ Fibre Cable

Data centre operators need high density. So, they must bundle as much fibre as possible into the smallest possible cable, to fit into their existing duct infrastructure. Originally developed for our hyperscale data centre customers, Prysmian’s UHD cables – featuring FlexRibbon™ technology – are designed to maximise fibre density and duct space utilisation, and will support major large scale data centres worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A data centre is a facility that houses servers, storage systems, networking equipment, and the supporting power, cooling, and connectivity infrastructure needed to process, store, and distribute digital information. Modern data centres support cloud services, enterprise applications, artificial intelligence workloads, and digital communications across industries.

A data centre receives, processes, stores, and transmits digital data through interconnected servers and networking equipment. Fibre optic and copper cabling transport data throughout the facility, while power distribution, cooling systems, and monitoring technologies ensure continuous operation and reliability.

The main types of data centres are enterprise, colocation, AI, cloud, hyperscale, and edge data centres. 

  • Enterprise data centres are owned and operated by a single organisation. 
  • Colocation facilities provide space, power, and connectivity for multiple customers. 
  • AI data centre is specifically designed to support artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads requiring high-performance computing resources. It requires a GPU-intensive infrastructure, extremely high-bandwidth connectivity, increased power requirements, advanced cooling solutions and high-density fibre cabling.
  • Cloud and hyperscale data centres support large-scale digital services and rapidly growing workloads. These facilities feature highly scalable network architectures, extensive fibre connectivity, and substantial power and cooling capacity.
  • Edge data centres are smaller facilities located closer to users and devices to reduce latency and improve performance. 

Each type requires scalable data centre infrastructure, including fibre optic connectivity, structured cabling, and reliable power distribution systems.

Data centres rely on three main cable categories:

  • Fibre optic cables for high-speed data transmission
  • Copper cabling for Ethernet and network connections
  • Power cables for electrical distribution

Together, these form the foundation of reliable data centre infrastructure and connectivity.

Structured cabling is a standardized system of cables, connectivity hardware, pathways, and management components that supports network operations. It creates an organized infrastructure that simplifies installation, maintenance, upgrades, and future expansion while improving overall network reliability.

Prysmian offers a complete cable infrastructure covering power and telecom, from grid connection to internal connectivity. Fully integrated as one system.

Our solutions are used a across the entire data centre from power supply, interconnect (campus/metro/long-haul), and to internal cabling.

Effective cable management protects fibre and copper cables from damage, reduces installation errors, improves airflow, simplifies maintenance, and speeds up troubleshooting. Well-organized cable infrastructure contributes directly to network reliability and operational efficiency.

A sustainable data centre minimizes environmental impact through energy-efficient operations, optimized cooling, renewable energy integration, responsible resource management, and long-life infrastructure design. Sustainable cable technologies can also help reduce material use and support long-term operational efficiency.
