1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,040
ah right oh okay i'm like tom cruise oh my

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:11,679
god i'm a short man with a big ego i mean i do my own stunts this this is

3
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:14,000
copper networking cable copper's lame

4
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:21,279
this this looks nothing like the network cable in your house

5
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:23,840
why because it carries data using light

6
00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:28,240
that's right ladies and gentlemen it's finally happening i have been chasing

7
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:33,440
the perfect networked video editing setup since before i even founded Linus

8
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:36,559
media group and the reason is simple it

9
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:39,520
is a massive pain in the scrotum to toss

10
00:00:36,559 --> 00:00:44,239
around external drives use google drive or whatever it is that regular people do

11
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:48,719
to share footage across multiple team members

12
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:50,800
and when it's done properly

13
00:00:48,719 --> 00:00:56,000
network storage also helps protect your valuable data in the event of a drive

14
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:59,680
failure now this project has been a huge

15
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,520
undertaking but we learned a ton

16
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:08,560
and we're going to be using the light from your monitor to network that info

17
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:11,520
straight into your brain world interface

18
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:17,280
that's right we're going 25 gigabit to every one of our editing workstations

19
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:20,400
100 gigabit to our servers and we are

20
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:23,040
telling you guys all about it

21
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:27,520
holy wait really are we sponsored by

22
00:01:24,479 --> 00:01:29,040
solidworks wow holy to that too

23
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:33,280
are you feeling stuck on your current project or waiting for your prototype to

24
00:01:31,119 --> 00:01:36,479
come off the 3d printer don't waste that time you should be learning from

25
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:40,880
industry pros who make products using solidworks every single day this year's

26
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:45,759
3d experience world is online and it's free to attend check it out at the link

27
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,759
in the video description

28
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,320
before we talk about the how of installing and using fiber it's

29
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:03,439
important to understand why fiber is even necessary in the first

30
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:08,479
place in both copper and fiber optic cabling information is transmitted by

31
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:12,800
changes in energy at a given frequency with copper Ethernet like rj45 cables

32
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:17,520
the conversion of these changes in electrical energy to actual data on

33
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:21,120
either end is handled by the device that you're plugging into

34
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:24,400
that's why the devices tend to be expensive and the cables tend to be

35
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:29,680
cheap in the case of fiber optics the cables

36
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:34,879
and devices can be relatively affordable but the transceivers which are used on

37
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:39,599
both ends to convert the changes in light to data can be an absolute money

38
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:44,000
pit it's also worth noting here that your switch or network card can be fussy

39
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:48,480
about the brand of transceiver you use kind of like printers that require

40
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:52,400
pricey first party ink fortunately all of our gear got along nicely

41
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:56,000
without getting into too much detail about the nerdiness that is cable

42
00:02:53,920 --> 00:03:00,959
signaling the main advantage to fiber optic cabling is that it can carry a

43
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,800
signal over a much greater distance and

44
00:03:00,959 --> 00:03:07,120
at a higher frequency this is thanks to the very low signal

45
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,800
power loss incurred by the glass inside the cabling itself

46
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:15,280
it also has much greater resistance to interference because the light inside of

47
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:19,760
a fiber optic cable isn't really susceptible to electromagnetic

48
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:24,319
interference from heavy machinery or electrical lines etc

49
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:29,760
now it's not that copper cabling can't do high speeds even in our server room

50
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,280
we have copper cables that run 100 gigabit

51
00:03:30,879 --> 00:03:38,000
but those cables are usually limited to about 5 meters and if you move up to 400

52
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,799
gigabit Ethernet yes that is a thing the longest copper

53
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:47,920
cables you'll see top out around 3 meters or 10 feet that's nowhere near

54
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:53,840
long enough for our editors to plug in so we knew we needed fiber but

55
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:58,000
fiber is the kind of rabbit hole where there's lots of documentation out there

56
00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:03,840
but all of it is designed for people who already know everything about it do we

57
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:08,640
need single mode or multi-mode lc or sc

58
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:10,000
simplex or duplex om3 om4 om5

59
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:15,599
so here we go the two main types of fiber are multi-mode and single mode and the main

60
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:20,239
difference between them is the size of the core which is the actual glass that

61
00:04:18,239 --> 00:04:25,840
transmits the optical signals while single mode uses a very thin core

62
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:30,080
isolating the light to a single beam multi mode has a much larger core

63
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:33,600
allowing the light to reflect back and forth within it

64
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:39,199
this allows multi-mode fiber to send light along several different paths or

65
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:43,520
modes at the same time however when it comes to longer distances the multiple

66
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:48,240
paths of light can cause distortion at the receiving end making it less ideal

67
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:52,080
for applications like that in practice multi-mode is usually

68
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:57,360
reserved for up to about a hundred meters which means that inexpensive led

69
00:04:55,199 --> 00:05:01,600
or laser sources can be used to send light down the glass

70
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:07,280
anything greater than that let's say 10 20 40 kilometers is typically single

71
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:10,880
mode and requires much more expensive solid-state lasers

72
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:16,000
this means that for our application going from here to here we could use

73
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:21,840
single mode but that would be really expensive and kind of stupid

74
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:29,199
next up we've got the type of connector or termination lc sc fc st etc

75
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:33,360
this one really comes down to your application or preference the 25 gigabit

76
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:39,600
transceivers that we're going to be using from fs.com by the way

77
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:41,600
thanksfs.com use lc fiber connections so

78
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:45,840
naturally that's the type of cabling that we went with you can easily adapt

79
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:51,280
between connection types so if you get the wrong cable it's not a huge concern

80
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:57,039
but there is one big note here re-terminating fiber cables in the field

81
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:59,360
can be very expensive and time-consuming

82
00:05:57,039 --> 00:06:03,840
so whenever you can it's best to use pre-fabricated cables like what we got

83
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,400
from our friends over at infinite cables thanks bros

84
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:11,919
then there is simplex versus duplex

85
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:17,280
light can only be sent one direction at any given time so in most cases any

86
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:22,400
fiber link is going to have two cables one for transmitting and one for

87
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:26,240
receiving this is called duplex fiber

88
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:29,199
however you can also get simplex fiber

89
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:34,720
and run by die or bidirectional transceivers which make use of multiple

90
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,639
modes of light each to send and receive

91
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:40,160
over one cable these transceivers are much more

92
00:06:38,479 --> 00:06:44,880
expensive though so they're not much use to us but in the data

93
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:48,400
center by eye can be used to increase density in fixed size conduits and patch

94
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:54,319
panels and can also help with cable management

95
00:06:51,199 --> 00:06:56,479
then there's the category of cabling for

96
00:06:54,319 --> 00:07:00,000
multi-mode there's om1 all the way through to om5 with the primary

97
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:05,919
difference being the bandwidth and distance capability of each generation

98
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:08,080
we went with om3 because it's cheap ish

99
00:07:05,919 --> 00:07:12,880
and has ample range for the relatively short runs to our editors

100
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:16,160
so okay multi-mode duplex lc connector om3 fiber

101
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:20,960
say that three times fast but enough of talking headlines let's take a look at

102
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:26,080
the actual deployment and maybe we'll even run and test a cable

103
00:07:24,479 --> 00:07:29,919
usually when you're working with this ultra thin stuff it's to save space in

104
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:35,440
your conduit so that you can run more cables but we were mostly concerned with

105
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:40,800
fitting the boot of the wire inside of our electrical boxes you'd also usually

106
00:07:38,319 --> 00:07:46,319
run it in conduit or by cabling with some kind of shielding or protective

107
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,400
cover but it's just gonna kind of hang

108
00:07:46,319 --> 00:07:53,520
out up in our drop ceiling so we weren't worried about the cables getting damaged

109
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:56,720
over time and even if one did we did run

110
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:59,120
copper to every station just in case and

111
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:05,120
the server room happens to be just on the other side of this wall so

112
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:07,599
it's not like we'd have to go very far

113
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:12,879
so from each of these keystone jacks right here ah there we go each editor oh

114
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:17,759
thank you Jake we'll have a small patch cable like this running to the 25

115
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:20,960
gigabit nick in their system shout out to melanox for providing those by the

116
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:26,639
way we did a full video showing off their blazing fast speeds recently and

117
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:28,800
then each of these will be protected by

118
00:08:26,639 --> 00:08:32,640
here we go there we go a small bit of split loom while the

119
00:08:31,039 --> 00:08:38,159
fiber lines in the office were run professionally there's one that we

120
00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:43,919
kind of forgot to do the one that goes from the server room here around where

121
00:08:41,599 --> 00:08:49,600
the camera guys sit to overhear our ingest station some of our

122
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:55,120
camera operators got a little dvd about using the mac minis so we're

123
00:08:52,399 --> 00:09:01,519
back to pc and what we discovered is that running 10 gig with two red megs

124
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:03,360
plugged in actually saturates it so

125
00:09:01,519 --> 00:09:07,040
ed was like hey can we have a fiber connection we were like hey

126
00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:11,920
we got you covered so the only thing here is we're working with like the extra scraps from that

127
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:15,680
install so we might have to like couple two cables together

128
00:09:13,839 --> 00:09:18,800
but it's actually like fine fiber is really easy to couple so how should we

129
00:09:17,519 --> 00:09:24,080
start this do you think i guess we have to start on one end yeah kinda so we already have

130
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:27,920
wire mold that runs across all the way down to here

131
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,959
but then it pops back into the wall like right there for some reason oh weird so

132
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:35,200
i guess we can have it come out of here and then we'll just like tape some split

133
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:39,279
loom to it i think yeah okay blue loom is like this corrugated plastic stuff

134
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:42,399
that's split and it's a wire loom so you put wires in it to sort of protect them

135
00:09:40,959 --> 00:09:49,399
or keep them organized in the case of fiber you like don't want people to damage it is there

136
00:09:45,279 --> 00:09:49,399
a reason this computer goes backwards

137
00:09:54,880 --> 00:10:00,480
i think if we have the split loom come up we can like tape it or

138
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:03,040
LTT Store cable tie it to like right here and then just a little bit of fiber

139
00:10:01,839 --> 00:10:07,920
will come out i absolutely hate everything about what i'm looking

140
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:13,839
at right now you got to be gentle with this stuff eh i will i know but it's not

141
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:17,360
it's not easy what are the odds this fiber cable still

142
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:21,279
works by the time we're done i give it at least eighty percent eighty

143
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:26,640
percent yeah and you want that to go into the cable

144
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:29,839
dude adam and jig there yeah oh my god we have to move the shelf how the hell

145
00:10:28,079 --> 00:10:34,210
are we gonna move the shelf three two one

146
00:10:31,680 --> 00:10:35,360
oh man um that should probably be enough

147
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:41,600
hey okay all right all right here i'm gonna pass this up to you well should i

148
00:10:39,519 --> 00:10:44,959
just like climb on the shelf i guess i i don't know how how strong you think this

149
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:49,279
pebbly case is very

150
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:51,360
oh wow there's like a open wall socket here

151
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:56,880
you should probably tell Yvonne about that i think this is a fire bell are you

152
00:10:54,880 --> 00:11:00,640
gonna take this at some point what hello hold on i gotta tell you

153
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:05,600
vaughn about this hi oh watermelon sugar

154
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:09,519
okay you're still good you're still good

155
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:15,760
are are you gonna start putting it in there i mean i don't know a little bit

156
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:17,120
i mean okay that's about the right

157
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:21,200
length i think i don't think this shelf is going anywhere so i'm just gonna oh

158
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,880
okay i'm on the shelf now yeah good i guess

159
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,560
um are you all the way to the top

160
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,720
it's not it's not quite it's a little warm

161
00:11:31,279 --> 00:11:38,160
i think that's good enough for now okay where's the oh geez

162
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:40,800
oh gosh some people use ladders i think you should just climb up here to do this

163
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:45,440
whole part all right i'm just gonna throw this over there oh wait we were supposed to do two two why two uh

164
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:50,079
because there's two ingest stations going here all right all right get on back down there well why do i have to

165
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:54,160
get down there because you're the little one i'm gonna tape this one up here

166
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:59,839
hold on and just pass me the roll of tape uh nope hey can you pass me the

167
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:03,200
roll of tape can i can you wait a second

168
00:11:59,839 --> 00:12:05,760
zoomers man they're so impatient damn

169
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:09,760
boomers they're so slow your mom's a boomer i don't even think

170
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:12,880
she is i drop the tape are you there you want to open up the thing yeah you wanna

171
00:12:10,959 --> 00:12:15,839
pass me the thing well you gotta open up the thing first don't give me the thing

172
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,880
first how about fine here here's your thing

173
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:22,959
i can't believe we're running fiber straight to the backs of the ingest

174
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:26,399
stations this is kind of crazy what were you thinking instead

175
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:30,639
i just thought they'd run Ethernet where's my fiber in my office

176
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,880
okay now climb up here and do your thing let's

177
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:38,399
sometimes i wonder who's actually in charge here

178
00:12:36,079 --> 00:12:42,800
okay it's not gonna fall right can you hold it i'm i'm holding it right now

179
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:46,800
i'm holding it braced against this one you're fine plus this one is like in the way so it's

180
00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:50,399
like fine oh god

181
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:54,720
okay all right i'm gonna i'm gonna get down now you have fun up here

182
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:59,680
see you later maybe we should have tested these cables before we put them in there yeah it probably wouldn't have

183
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:04,000
been a terrible idea i need some tape or you're just closing it oh yeah

184
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:07,200
just gotta not pinch it too hard there we go

185
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:11,279
man i'm like the pinch off king is that what you told me i'm pinching off the

186
00:13:08,959 --> 00:13:15,839
thing here i'm lightest tech tips hi i'm coming to you from the top of the shelf

187
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:19,760
uh we got some great news up here the lights are the lights are they're warm

188
00:13:17,839 --> 00:13:23,839
but they're not hot you know it's too hot up here with my LTT Store stealth

189
00:13:22,079 --> 00:13:27,040
hoodie you know why he wears the toque so he doesn't have to do his hair

190
00:13:28,399 --> 00:13:34,160
exposed hashtag Linus i think i need

191
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,760
like a flathead or something uh you have keys on you uh yes

192
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:42,000
oh you do have a knife yeah that's enough what is the cycle

193
00:13:40,079 --> 00:13:47,040
it's a ladybug i don't want to break the knife yeah why

194
00:13:44,079 --> 00:13:55,440
don't we use let's use the flathead uh very graceful dennis well no that was

195
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:55,440
my keys that wasn't me yet oh god uh

196
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:04,000
where is it there it is okay there we go not so bad so how far are we

197
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:07,440
going to make it here we might make it like pretty much to there most of the

198
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:13,680
way which is good actually because then if the coupler i'd rather the coupler not be in the wire mold yeah okay wait

199
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:18,079
how did i end up on top of the ladder oh no Jake i'm stuck on top of the shelf

200
00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:21,600
you're gonna have to get the ladder and climb the ladder he can't resist the

201
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:25,120
damsel in distress the damsel oh boy

202
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:29,279
damn incel you know for a fact i'm not celibate

203
00:14:27,279 --> 00:14:34,720
you've met my children oh yeah that sounded worse than it was

204
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:37,040
yeah no no not like that

205
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:40,240
you ready yeah give me that oh god

206
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:45,360
that wasn't very graceful okay hold on we can do more graceful than that

207
00:14:42,639 --> 00:14:50,399
right all right oh okay not graceful but it works if it works like twerks you

208
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:54,079
know can i can i climb it this time oh you want to go up here yeah uh if i come

209
00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:58,160
down i'm not going back up you got long arms right um yeah i don't know if i'd

210
00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,959
describe myself as a long-armed boy you better watch that sprinkler all right

211
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:05,519
yeah yeah i'll try not to punch it too hard this is very unpleasant isn't it

212
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:09,440
doesn't it suck oh my god oh

213
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:13,600
hey fortunately my t-shirt is also LTT stored

214
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:19,120
it's not exertion sweat it's like stress sweat like the really stinky sweat

215
00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:22,720
i'm like tom cruise oh my god i'm a short man with a big ego i mean i do my

216
00:15:20,959 --> 00:15:25,920
own stunts there's one more grievance we didn't talk about previously in the

217
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:31,360
video and that's that you can't get the end of these cables dirty if there's any

218
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:35,360
speck of dust or you know like sweat or whatever grease grease stuck on the end

219
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:39,120
of the ferrule that's at the end of the fiber cable it can actually block your

220
00:15:37,199 --> 00:15:42,000
signal and result in a connection that doesn't work fortunately our friends

221
00:15:40,639 --> 00:15:47,040
over at fluke sent us over to one of their server fibers this is like a 20

222
00:15:44,079 --> 00:15:51,120
000 fiber tester thanks fluke thanks fluke one of the coolest features with

223
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:54,720
this thing is their fiber inspector it's essentially like a little camera that

224
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:58,639
you can stick on to the end of fiber cables and look directly at them to see

225
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:01,600
if they're dirty and it'll even do like a test to

226
00:16:00,079 --> 00:16:06,000
tell you for sure that that cable is clean just some standard i guess and you can

227
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:10,639
even put it up your butt i mean technically that's a feature of pretty much anything yeah we try hard i mean

228
00:16:09,279 --> 00:16:16,480
you wouldn't really see anything it's very zoomed in we got our test set up as

229
00:16:13,519 --> 00:16:19,920
fiber inspector that's what we want here i just test stick the thing on the thing

230
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:24,720
so yeah did you pop the dust cap up yeah stick it all the way on and then that ring there is to focus

231
00:16:23,279 --> 00:16:29,759
keep going keep going keep going thank you guys stop

232
00:16:27,759 --> 00:16:33,759
and so now that it's in focus click analyze

233
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:38,880
and we can see that there's only one tiny defect but that's within

234
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:41,920
the specification and it's okay it's cool though they even show you the

235
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:45,680
zone so like right in the middle there you can see the white little white speck

236
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:50,959
there that's actually the light that's coming through the fiber from the other end if you were to take like a light pen

237
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:55,680
and shine it up there you'd have a big big white spot the actual like glass

238
00:16:53,839 --> 00:16:59,199
part is just this inner ring there and these are all just extra parts that are

239
00:16:57,759 --> 00:17:03,440
around it to protect it like part of the ferrule it's really really zoomed in for

240
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:09,439
reference the part that we're looking at in the middle is only 62.5 microns

241
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:14,160
that's tiny i guess i shouldn't look into this eh ah it's not that's a little

242
00:17:11,360 --> 00:17:17,280
laser not really oh okay it's a light how we doing well that one's kind of

243
00:17:15,439 --> 00:17:20,959
dirty so we're going to clean this one dirty dirty lad now you might think i'll

244
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:25,439
just give it a yeah and clean it off with your shirt try cleaning it with your shirt or maybe

245
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:28,319
your toque it's probably got some nice Linus juice on there

246
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,799
now fortunately we have a little cleaning pen

247
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:38,000
that's probably good okay the more you do it the more like

248
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:43,840
staticky it gets it's probably just gonna be dirty um all right

249
00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:46,480
from what i was told usually you do once and if it's not enough then you do a

250
00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:50,720
couple more wow and look at that that's pretty clean so

251
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:53,120
there's still some specks outside of the middle part but it shouldn't really

252
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:57,919
matter yeah it still passes we're good to go does

253
00:17:55,919 --> 00:18:01,360
this thing cycle like a cleaning thing yeah there's like a little anti-static

254
00:17:59,360 --> 00:18:05,039
like cleaning towel thing in there a little a little piece of fancy string

255
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:09,120
that's sick okay and then we're gonna plug this boy

256
00:18:07,039 --> 00:18:09,120
in

257
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:16,080
oh no no we got it we gotta

258
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:20,320
on baby yeah okay ah you can do it oh yeah she's good

259
00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:24,720
got it whoo nice not bad it's clean

260
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:29,080
how are we gonna oh yeah i wish we had uh

261
00:18:32,799 --> 00:18:38,160
that's a pretty tight hole oh the top one's a little looser hold hold hold

262
00:18:36,559 --> 00:18:43,120
hold hold the door yeah you're

263
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:46,400
good i don't want things to get too kinky here you know

264
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:51,120
okay all right okay so the last thing we're going to do

265
00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:54,960
to verify our link is still working is a loss test that's basically going to make

266
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:58,400
sure that we don't have too much signal loss for how long our cable is and it

267
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:03,440
can also certify it for the specific application we're going to run it's not only going to tell us that two 15 meter

268
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:06,799
cables that are coupled together have this specific amount of loss and that's

269
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:10,799
within the budget that's good it's also going to certify it say for 100 gigabit

270
00:19:09,039 --> 00:19:14,240
so we'll say yes we want this cable to be able to do 100 gig and it'll tell us

271
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:17,520
if according to how much coupling we have that it's an appropriate amount of

272
00:19:15,919 --> 00:19:22,960
loss but we're gonna need two split looms there you know that right why because we have two different computers

273
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:28,400
oh that makes sense dummy all right so we're going to do 100 gig

274
00:19:25,679 --> 00:19:31,919
and we have one connection in the middle right we

275
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:36,160
have one coupler and then we have the two air gaps at each end which is like

276
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:40,480
where our reference cables will connect man an accidental sniff on the fiber at

277
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:43,760
this point would be not a good time please no there's like a better way to

278
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:47,200
do this but we're not doing it the better way it's gonna fall off now

279
00:19:45,919 --> 00:19:50,640
well it's not gonna fall out yeah it probably will it will not how's it gonna

280
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:54,799
fall out it's all over the place okay just taking my tape off does not count

281
00:19:52,880 --> 00:20:01,280
as just having it fall out stop now that i've you know yeah but you're like

282
00:19:57,919 --> 00:20:02,480
like you can move it around

283
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:06,880
you should have just wrapped it all the way around it's like extra effort to

284
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:10,559
specifically make yeah but it saves tape and we are within

285
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:14,160
the spec for a hundred gig even though we're only doing 25 so oh cool

286
00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:20,080
all right how about this one our loss is a little higher than i was expecting but our limit is 1.9 db and our loss was

287
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:23,280
only like 0.4 i'm guessing it might be like a little dirty on this end because

288
00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:27,600
we didn't clean this end first but it's well within our margin so we're

289
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:31,840
good success nice well that was a lot of learning but don't you guys worry

290
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:36,640
because next time on LTT hopefully about a week or so from now we are finally

291
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:40,799
going to get all of our editors down here in the renovated editing den and

292
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:44,720
plugged into our fiber with our brand new server that we're calling new new

293
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:48,400
one x server new new oneic

294
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:52,880
and we're gonna use that to test the performance of the setup to see if all

295
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:55,840
of this work was even worth it at all lmao you know what's definitely worth it

296

307
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:43,840
just what kind of crazy performance we're expecting out of this setup
