Michael Thomas talks with The Data Center Frontier Show to crack open the world of In-Line Amplifier (ILA) huts that keep internet, voice, and data networks running over long distances. From the analog roots of signal amplification to today’s digital optical technologies, this conversation explores how ILAs are redefining long-haul fiber transport.

Tune in to The Data Center Frontier Show to find out how the pulse of long-haul fiber is beating louder than ever with the help of ILA shelters.
