Acacia Wins ECOC Industry Award for its Family of 400G Pluggable Coherent Solutions with 3D Siliconization Technology
08 Dezembro 2020 - 10:39AM
Acacia Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACIA), a leading provider of
high-speed coherent optical interconnect products, today announced
that its family of 400G pluggable coherent solutions have won the
optical integration (Silicon Photonics) category of the first-ever
ECOC Exhibition Industry awards. Utilizing Acacia’s 3D
siliconization technology, Acacia’s 400G pluggable module family
features an expansive list of interoperability solutions (400ZR,
OpenZR+, Open ROADM MSA and CableLabs Coherent Optics Physical
Layer Specification) in QSFP-DD, OSFP and CFP2-DCO pluggable form
factors for cloud data center (DCI) interconnects and service
provider networks. Acacia’s 400G pluggable coherent solutions were
designed to enable network operators to address increasing
bandwidth demand through a simplified network architecture to help
reduce both capital and operational expenditures.
“For more than a decade, Acacia has been executing on its vision
to unleash the full potential of silicon technology in optical
interconnects and this award is a testament to our efforts,” said
Tom Williams, Vice President of Marketing at Acacia Communications.
“By utilizing our 3D Siliconization technology, Acacia has been
able to move beyond traditional optics manufacturing, utilizing
semiconductor processes that are designed to enable these 400G
coherent pluggable modules to scale to address higher-volume
applications.”
400G pluggable modules represent a key architectural change in
high-bandwidth data center interconnects because they can be
plugged directly into switches and routers offering the same
density for both coherent DWDM and client optics in the same
chassis. As bandwidth demands continue to grow, these solutions are
designed to help cloud providers increase the capacity of the
optical interfaces that connect their data centers around the
globe. The use of coherent optics in switches and routers can
simplify architectures, resulting in reductions in capital and
operational expenditures. The same technology can be combined with
higher performance standards for the potential to drive more
traditional transport applications toward CFP2-DCO solutions.
“Congratulations to Acacia for winning one of only six awards
being given in honor of ECOC’s 25th anniversary,” said Emma Harvey,
Commercial Director, Nexus Media Events, organizers of the ECOC
Exhibition. “After careful consideration, our judges determined
that Acacia’s 400G pluggable coherent solutions emphasize
technology and product commercialization and highlighted
significant achievements in advancing the business of optical
communications and silicon photonic integration.”
3D Siliconization Technology AdvantageAcacia’s
400G pluggable coherent solutions leverage its 3D siliconization
technology that takes advantage of Acacia’s expertise in
high-performance silicon PICs and low power digital signal
processors (DSPs.) Acacia’s 3D Siliconization applies integration
and 3D stacking techniques to enable a single device that includes
the high-speed opto-electronic functions necessary for coherent
communications. This device, which includes the DSP, photonic
integrated circuitry, drivers and TIAs, is manufactured using
standard electronics packaging processes. Advantages of 3D
Siliconization include the reduction of electrical interconnects
and improved signal integrity, leading to improvements in
performance, cost, reliability, power consumption, and size.
