Bookham announced the launch of its new product at this week's OFC/NFOEC tradeshow in San Diego.
ClariPhy's CL1012 IC, the company noted, is the first and only 10 gigabit per second (Gb/s) MLSE solution available in single-chip CMOS technology, and delivers industry-leading power and performance in the electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) of impairments inherent to optical fiber in telecommunications (telecom) networks.
"The significant performance, cost, size and power dissipation advantages this solution offers have been enabled by the combination of the Bookham indium phosphide building blocks and the MLSE technology provided by ClariPhy. We look forward to delivering significant cost savings to network equipment manufacturers, and seeing widespread deployment of this application over a greater percentage of installed fiber routes," said Chris Clarke, Vice President of Strategy and Chief Engineer at Bookham.
"We are very excited to contribute to Bookham's milestone product," said Dr. Paul Voois, Co-founder and CEO of ClariPhy. "By delivering the proven benefits of MLSE in a small form factor 300 pin transponder, Bookham has established a new benchmark in power and performance for dispersion-tolerant modules, and has presented a significant value proposition to telecom equipment providers and carriers. We commend Bookham on its achievement."
ClariPhy Communications develops mixed-signal CMOS integrated circuits (ICs) that enable ubiquitous adoption of advanced signal processing technology in 10, 40 and 100 Gb/s optical networks.
