CHANDLER, Ariz., Feb. 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- VIAVI Solutions
Inc. (VIAVI) (NASDAQ: VIAV) today announced that the
VIAVI Xgig® CXL Exerciser has been recognized as a CXL
1.1 Gold device by the Compute Express Link®
(CXL®) Consortium. With this approval, the Xgig CXL
Exerciser can now qualify CXL devices' protocol implementations for
the CXL Integrators List.
"CXL technology supports the evolution of emerging high-speed
computing applications, and certification is critical to successful
product rollouts," said Tom Fawcett,
Senior Vice President and General Manager, Lab and Production,
VIAVI. "This approval allows our Xgig CXL Exerciser to be used not
only for lab development and testing, but also for certification of
devices at CXL Compliance Workshops."
As Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) and other
high-performance computing technologies evolve, the demand for
faster and more efficient data transfer methods will grow. CXL is
an interconnect technology that optimizes data flow between a
Central Processing Unit (CPU) and its peripherals such as
accelerators, memory buffers and smart input/output devices.
Designed for cache-coherent interconnects and memory expansion, CXL
ensures that these devices access and transfer data with the speed
and efficiency required by these demanding applications.
"Micron's collaboration with VIAVI Solutions has enabled the CXL
validation ecosystem and bolstered CZ120 CXL protocol compliance.
VIAVI Xgig software and hardware solutions and early engagement
with Micron have played a vital role in maturing CXL protocol
compliance tests," said Siva Makineni, Vice President, Advanced
Memory Systems, Micron. "We rely on the accuracy of VIAVI testing
equipment to validate Micron's CXL product line. The Xgig CXL
Exerciser's Gold Suite certification will allow us to be included
on the CXL v1.1 and 2.0 Integrators List."
"Standards compliance is integral to the mission of our
organization," said Jim Pappas,
Chairman, CXL Consortium. "The Xgig CXL Exerciser has met all
requirements to conduct CXL 1.1 protocol testing for companies or
products seeking CXL Compliance. We look forward to VIAVI's
continued support for our ecosystem and participation in our
upcoming compliance events."
VIAVI participated in the official CXL Compliance Test Event 003
in January. It will be exhibiting its industry-leading portfolio of
CXL solutions at the CXL Developers' Conference from April 30 – May 1,
2024 in Santa Clara,
