The Ethernet Alliance’s 2020 technology roadmap expects speeds of 800 Gbps and 1.6 Tbps become IEEE standard before 2025. For short reach optical interconnects using multimode fibers VCSEL based transceivers have been the workhorse for many years.  VI Systems launched its first set of ultrahigh speed VCSEL chips for 50 Gbps at 850 nm and …

The IEEE P802.3db 100 Gb/s, 200 Gb/s, and 400 Gb/s Short Reach Fiber Task Force confirmed the PMD for 100 meter distance as follows: Define a physical layer specification that supports 100 Gb/s operation over 1 pair of MMF with lengths up to at least 100 m Define a physical layer specification that supports 200 …

Presently electrical interfaces at 56Gbaud and data rates of 112Gb/s are being deployed with the link lengths up to 50cm on board and up to 2m in cable versions. To extend the distances up to and beyond 100m, needed for the installed base served by multimode fiber a new generation of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) …

Even though the holiday season is coming at a difficult time and 2020 has been a complicated year we would like to thank all our customers and partners for your good cooperation over the past year, as well as wish you Happy Holidays and a Prosperous New Year!…
