SAN JOSE, Calif., March 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Oclaro,
Inc. (NASDAQ: OCLR), a leading provider and innovator of
optical communications solutions, today announced a powerful suite
of products and demos being highlighted at OFC 2018. Capable of
driving network speeds up to 1Tb and beyond, these components and
modules include 400 and 600 Gbps coherent optics, CFP2-digital
coherent optical (DCO) modules, and the latest intra-data center
modules employing Electro-absorption Modulator Lasers (EMLs) and
PAM4 integrated circuits. The company also announced plans to
expand its current portfolio of laser die to include its
world-class EMLs that are in high demand for high-speed
interconnect applications today.
"Innovation through our core Indium Phosphide technology is key
to delivering the higher-speed networks needed to achieve 1Tb and
beyond," said Adam Carter, Chief
Commercial Officer for Oclaro. "Oclaro is constantly driving new
advances that increase density, improve performance and lower power
consumption. Our OFC line-up demonstrates our success in all of
those critical areas."
Key Demos at OFC
Following are some of the key demos Oclaro will be featuring in
its OFC booth #2812.
- 400 Gbps components: Oclaro will showcase its
high-bandwidth components operating at 400 Gbps with 16QAM
constellation at 64GBaud. This will include NLW lasers in
conjunction with a single channel, Lithium Niobate Modulator and a
64GBaud Integrated Coherent Receiver (ICR). The demonstration will
show the recovered constellation at the receiver as well as the
optical spectrum at the transmitter spectrum validating the
operation at 400 Gbps.
- 1.2Tb in-feed components: Features an Integrated
Coherent Transmitter (ICT) operating at 600 Gbps with a 64QAM
constellation at 64GBaud.
- 400 Gbps FR4 module: Features a 400 Gbps QSFP56 DD
module containing an Oclaro 53GBaud transmitter and reciever
optical sub assemblies (TOSA and ROSA) and a gearbox IC to convert
between 8x50G PAM4 electrical host signals and 4x100G PAM4 optical
line side signals. The demonstration highlights progress being made
towards the realization of 400 Gbps single-mode client side modules
for the hyperscale data center.
- Live 100 Gbps PAM4 optical transmission: Demonstration
of a 100 Gbps PAM4 optical link using one lane of Oclaro's 4x
53Gbaud transmitter and optical sub-assemblies capable of 400 Gbps
optical transmission.
