The global consortium’s demonstration encompassed next-generation technologies from stakeholders across the Ethernet ecosystem
Enabling on-board and co-packaged optics requires photonic integrated circuits and silicon photonics, but the exact format is yet to be established, finds Andy Extance
Intel has agreed to acquire Ethernet switch silicon and software specialist for the data centre, Barefoot Networks.
California-based start-up Tibit Communications has received a second round of financing, totalling $20 million, from Intel Capital, the venture capital arm of Intel Corporation.
The Intel® Silicon Photonics 100G CWDM4 QSFP28 Optical Transceiver product family is expanding!
Intel has expanded its PON portfolio with the introduction of a high-speed, multimode 10G PON chipset, which was showcased at the Broadband World Forum event in Berlin.
The CWDM8 multi-source agreement (MSA) Group has been formed to define optical specifications for 400G singlemode optics using 50G per wavelength and non-return-to-zero (NRZ) optical modulation.
The consortium aims to address what they see as a near-term need for lower power and more cost-effective options for distances of 2km and 10km within data centre and campus networks. This will support the deployment of 12.8Tb/s Ethernet switches and other advanced networking equipment with 50G electrical I/O.
