Source Photonics’ latest 1.6T product series includes DR8, 2xFR4 optical modules and DAC/ACC copper cables. The 800G product series includes SR8, DR8, 2xFR4 based on single lambda 100G, and DR4, FR4, and LR4 modules based on single-lambda 200G, as well as DAC/ACC/AEC copper cables packaged in form of either OSFP or QSFP-DD form factors covering multiple optical connector and interface options.
Source Photonics began production shipments of 100G single lambda PAM4 based 100G/400G transceivers when 400G industry adoption started to take off from 2021, and over 7.5 million high speed 28/53GBd EML chips have been shipped so far. The newly released product-grade 100GBd EMLs enable 200Gb/s single lambda PAM4 signaling for shipping 1.6T and 800G transceivers. The 800G FR4/LR4 optical modules will be demonstrated at the ECOC exhibition. The optical modules leverage self-developed 200G PAM4 EML lasers around O band, including CWDM wavelengths of 1271nm/1291nm/1311nm/1331nm and LWDM wavelengths at 1295.5nm/1300.0nm/1304.5nm/1309.1nm. It operates error free under KP4 + inner code FECi threshold of 4.85×10-3 at 113.4GBaud, and supports up to 10km single mode fiber transmission, exceeding IEEE Std 802.3ck-2022 and IEEE P802.3dj D1.1 specifications.
“Highly integrated and reliable 200G PAM4 EMLs double the optical bandwidth of current solution to enable 1.6Tbps pluggable modules for scaling AI cluster in data centers, which facilitate the industry transition to 51.2Tbps per RU networking architectures,” commented Dr. Frank Chang, CTO at Source Photonics. “The latest generation of 800G family of products reduces power consumption per bit by over 20%, and provides a fruitful of transceiver receptacle choices supporting backward compatibility and flexibility for smoothly upgrading from 400G to 800G and then 1.6T. The successful commercialization of 800G DR4/FR4/LR4 and the associated 1.6T DR8/2xFR4/2xLR4 optical transceivers represent our commitment in optical connectivity innovation to deliver next-generation pluggable transceivers.”
