Achieves Key Milestone to Establish 400ZR
Ecosystem for Data Center Interconnects
Inphi Corporation (NYSE: IPHI), a leader in high-speed data
movement interconnects, and NeoPhotonics Corporation (NYSE: NPTN),
a leading developer of silicon photonics and advanced hybrid
photonic integrated circuit-based lasers, modules and subsystems
for bandwidth-intensive, high speed communications networks, today
announced that the companies completed the industry’s first
interoperability demonstration of OIF 400ZR Implementation
Agreement compliant coherent transceivers, operating successfully
across the C-Band over 120km of optical fiber. Transceiver pairs
consisting of Inphi’s COLORZ® II QSFP-DD with its Canopus™ 7nm
Coherent DSP and NeoPhotonics 400ZR ClearLightTM OSFP were
successfully linked. Both 400ZR coherent optics transceivers
carried error-free traffic over a typical data center interconnect
(DCI) link configuration (amplified over 120km of fiber) at several
wavelengths across the C-Band using Arista 7060 data center
switches.
The successful interoperation of NeoPhotonics and Inphi 400ZR
transceivers demonstrates the availability of interoperable
coherent transceivers for the 400ZR ecosystem, a key step in
enabling the next generation of DCI links. 400ZR pluggable
transceiver modules significantly reduce the cost and power
consumption of DCIs by eliminating the transport network equipment
layer.
“We are very excited about the successful interoperable
demonstration with NeoPhotonics to bring pluggable 400G coherent
optics into the data center,” said Josef Berger, AVP of Marketing,
Optical Interconnect at Inphi. “This demonstration proves the
readiness to deliver the flexibility of high bandwidth DWDM
connectivity between data centers with the ability to rapidly scale
capacity and meet our customers’ demands for standards-based
pluggable coherent solutions.”
“NeoPhotonics has worked closely with Inphi to combine their
Canopus™ DSP with our high-performance laser and coherent optics
into a standards-based ClearLight™ OSFP and QSFP-DD transceiver
modules that can meet the needs of our hyper-scale customers,” said
Marc Stiller, Vice President of Coherent Modules for NeoPhotonics.
“Supporting the interoperable CFEC standard, as defined by OIF, has
been a critical part of our design effort, and we’re very pleased
to announce this milestone as we continue to work with customers to
implement this game-changing technology.”
Inphi’s COLORZ® II is the industry first 400ZR QSFP-DD pluggable
coherent transceiver that enables large cloud operators to connect
metro data centers at a fraction of the cost of traditional
coherent transport systems as well as enable switch and router
companies to offer the same density for both coherent DWDM and
client optics in the same chassis. For end users looking for
performance beyond 400ZR, Inphi’s Canopus 7nm coherent DSP is an
industry first, offering a multitude of reach and data rate options
for metro and long haul performance.
NeoPhotonics ClearLight™ 400ZR transceiver family, including
QSFP-DD and OSFP for Cloud and Ethernet applications and the CFP2
form factor for telecom networks, offers industry leading coherent
optical transmission performance in low power, pluggable form
factors compatible with switch and router platforms. These modules
utilize NeoPhotonics industry leading coherent optical components
including its Silicon Photonics Coherent Optical Subassembly (COSA)
and low power consumption, ultra-narrow linewidth Nano-ITLA tunable
laser. These components further enable operation over the full 6THz
Super-C transmission window.
