Excellent post. I'm a cabling guy (heavy on the copper side, not so much on the fiber side) and looking to make the jump into Data-Center construction, this post has opened up my eyes to the need to expand my skillset by taking some specialized training. I might have to see what BICSI has to offer for these new MXC connectors -- heck even for the microsegmented rack with power, storage etc.

Cool video about the MXC fiber here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBM6mmSbe_8

When the switch to IPv6 happens, it's going to get busy.
