Multi-mode fiber has been the workhorse for fiber optic communication within a data center for years, as well as the choice for Ethernet backbones in office buildings. It has a rich history that goes all the way back to the first optical fiber standards when 100 megabits per second was a huge data rate. Anybody remember those days?\n\nIn Episode 57, we continue our conversation with Hao Dong, market technology development manager for Corning\u2019s optical communications business. We get into the reach of future high speed standards for multi-mode fiber.\n\u2013 Pat Chou, Cisco Optics Product Manager\n\nHao Dong is a market technology development manager for Corning\u2019s optical communications business. Within this role, he focuses on technology and market trends to identify, evaluate, and develop leading optical network solutions that form the backbone of today\u2019s connected world.\n\nHao has over 18 years of industry experience and has held various positions in engineering, development, and marketing within the fields of optical components, fiber lasers, and optical communications.\n\nHao holds a Bachelor of Science in physics from Wuhan University and a Ph.D in physics from the University of Connecticut. \n\nOne quick note: You'll hear Hao mention a 100m reach fiber that they're working on. Since we recorded this, Corning has launched that fiber. It's their ClearCurve OM3 XT and OM4 XT multimode fiber. \n\nRelated links\nCisco Optics-to-Device Compatibility Matrix: https://tmgmatrix.cisco.com/ \nCisco Optics-to-Optics Interoperability Matrix: https://tmgmatrix.cisco.com/iop \nCisco Optics Product Information: https://copi.cisco.com/ \n\nAdditional resources\nCisco Optics Podcast: https://optics.podcastpage.io/ \nBlog: https://blogs.cisco.com/tag/ciscoopticsblog \nCisco Optics YouTube playlist: http://cs.co/9008BlQen \nCisco Optics landing page: cisco.com/go/optics \n\nMusic credits\nSunny Morning by FSM Team | https://www.free-stock-music.com/artist.fsm-team.html\nUpbeat by Mixaund | https://mixaund.bandcamp.com
