MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”) announces the industry’s first complete 100G Single Lambda Solution that enables the cost structure with the supply-chain flexibility for mainstream Cloud Datacenter deployment. Designed to help accelerate the deployment of 100G optical interconnects at cloud-scale cost structures, MACOM’s 100G Single Lambda Solution enables customers to quickly and easily integrate high-performance MACOM components and get to market faster with the next generation of 100G optical modules.
MACOM’s 100G Single Lambda Solution leverages the company’s 53 Gbaud PAM-4 technology to deliver 100G throughput over a single wavelength. 100G Single Lambda is an approach that has been endorsed by the IEEE that can dramatically reduce the number and cost of optical components typically housed in an optical transceiver module. 100G single lambda is implemented in QSFP optical modules enabling plug and play compatibility with existing systems, thereby accelerating customers’ field deployment of the technology, and bypassing the need for switches and routers to be developed before they can deploy their end solutions in volume.
Leveraging an advanced 16 nanometer FinFET process node, the MACOM PRISM™ Mixed Signal PHY that underpins the 100G Single Lambda Solution is a generation ahead of competing PHYs developed at larger, planar geometries. Designed for 53Gbaud PAM4 operation with integrated linear laser driver, forward error correction and a flexible DSP based equalizer, the MACOM PRISM™ enables ease of integration, delivering cloud-scale economics and cost structures.
MACOM’s PRISM is complemented by MACOM’s silicon photonics based optics consisting of a laser integrated with a PIC chip, that leverages the company’s patented Etched Facet Technology (EFT). This highly integrated photonic solution drives additional cost optimization, enabling cloud-scale manufacturing capabilities for our customers.
