DQPSK technology offers enhanced performance with improved OSNR characteristics and 50 GHz channel spacing. As the leading manufacturer of 40Gbps optical modules, Opnext's DQPSK technology offers improved performance, simplified network design and lower manufacturing cost to network equipment manufacturers.
Opnext's new 40Gbps VSR-2000-3R2 300-pin MSA transceiver introduces a compact size and reduced power dissipation to the company's 40Gbps module portfolio. The optical module is SFF (Small Form Factor) and is dimensioned as 3.5"x 4.5" footprint. System applications are migrating toward higher density 40Gbps platforms which require the smaller size and lower power that the Opnext 40Gbps SFF solution provides.
Opnext is showcasing its CFP MSA compliant module for 100GBASE-LR4 in a live demonstration during ECOC 2009. The CFP MSA defines the form factor of a hot-swappable optical transceiver supporting 40G and 100G ethernet and uses transceiver electrical interface consisting of multiple 10Gbps lanes. The 100GbE CFP optical module demonstrated at ECOC transmits and receives via four parallel wavelengths at 25Gbps each per the IEEE 802.3ba 100GbE project.
"Network equipment vendors are introducing higher bandwidth switching and routing solutions, flexible DWDM platforms, with extended reach requirements and more challenging thermal environments," said Tadayuki Kanno, president of Opnext's module business unit. "Opnext's 100GbE CFP, new 40G solution DQPSK MSA module, 40Gbps SFF VSR delivers the cost and power savings necessary to meet next generation network requirements."
Opnext will be exhibiting in Stand #637 at ECOC 2009, being held September 21-23, at the Austria Center, Vienna, Austria.
