SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 13, 2021 — Class 60 versions of the Coherent Driver-Modulator (CDM) and Intradyne Coherent Receiver (Micro-ICR) from NeoPhotonics Corp. address the next generation of 100+ Gbaud systems to meet the ongoing growth in demand for bandwidth.
Class 60 Coherent components extend the highest speed-over-distance performance of Class 50 products by increasing the 3-dB bandwidth from 50 to 60 GHz. It allows increasing symbol rates from the current 64+ Gbaud rate to 100+ Gbaud rates. Users can implement single-wavelength data transmission near 1 Tb/s over datacenter interconnect distances, and long-haul 400- to 500-Gbps transmission.
These components are designed to work together with NeoPhotonics Nano ultra-narrow linewidth external cavity tunable laser. Users can pack more data over longer distances for better economics, lower cost-per-bit, lower operating expenses, and lower power consumption, all under the same hardware envelope as the current Class 40 components.
