HUBER+SUHNER Upgrades LISA and IANOS Fiber Management Systems with SENKO SN Connectivity

[Boston MA, March 26th 2025] SENKO Advanced Components is pleased to announce that HUBER+SUHNER, a strategic solution provider of high-density fiber management systems in the Data Center, TELCO, and FTTH markets, has upgraded its LISA Optical Distribution Frame (ODF) and IANOS patch panel with SN connectivity. This next-generation VSFF (Very Small Form Factor) connector was developed by SENKO, and this enhancement sets the foundation for higher-density, more scalable, and future-ready data center infrastructure.

A Benchmark in Fiber Management

For over two decades, the LISA system has been the benchmark for high-density fiber management, offering unmatched flexibility and modularity for large-scale network environments. By integrating SN connectivity, HUBER+SUHNER is preparing its industry-leading fiber management platforms for the next generation of hyperscale data centers, cloud infrastructure, and high-performance computing environments.

“This is a significant milestone in the evolution of fiber management,” said Phil Ward, Director of Strategic Marketing at SENKO. “Having been involved in the development and of LISA and IANOS during my time at HUBER+SUHNER, it’s very rewarding to see the integration of SN connectivity, ensuring that these solutions remain at the forefront of fiber optic innovation for years to come.”

Enhancing Cross-Connect Cabling in White Spaces

Optical Distribution Frames (ODFs) optimize cross-connect cabling by centralizing fiber connections between servers and switches. The integration of SN connectivity within LISA and IANOS brings key advantages, including:

• Maximized fiber density – SN technology doubles or triples fiber capacity compared to LC duplex connectors
• Efficient cross-connect management – Simplifies network architecture and enhances visibility
• Pre-deployment of permanent links – Reduces re-patching and minimizes downtime
• Scalable design – Supports high-speed transceivers and lane aggregation for 400G/800G applications

Advancing Fiber Splicing with Mass-Fusion Technology

Alongside SN integration, HUBER+SUHNER has also upgraded LISA and IANOS to support mass-fusion splicing, a technology that enhances deployment speed and network reliability. Compared to single-fiber splicing, mass-fusion splicing is nearly three times faster, significantly improving installation efficiency and optical link budgets.

“Integrating SN connectivity into our LISA and IANOS solutions reinforces our commitment to delivering future-proof, high-density fiber management systems for data centers and telecom networks,” said Dmitry Tsyplakov, Product Manager for Fiber Management Systems at HUBER+SUHNER. “With the addition of mass-fusion splicing and SN connectivity, our solutions now offer the highest level of scalability, flexibility, and optical performance available today.”

Future-Proofing Data Center Connectivity

The integration of SN connectivity and mass-fusion splicing within LISA and IANOS aligns with evolving data center trends, ensuring:

• Seamless support for ribbon fiber cabling
• Higher density and improved optical performance
• Scalable network expansion for future data rate demands

By combining HUBER+SUHNER’s expertise in high-density fiber management with SENKO’s leadership in advanced connectivity, this strategic collaboration marks a major leap forward in data center efficiency, network scalability, and operational flexibility.
