- Telluride chipset accelerates the
transition from 100Gbps to 400Gbps optical connectivity by enabling
100Gbps per wavelength technology
MaxLinear, Inc. (NYSE:MXL), a leading provider of
communication SoCs for optical communications that
integrate radio frequency (RF), broadband analog and mixed-signal
integrated circuits, digital signal processing and
modems, will showcase the industry’s first 400Gbps transceiver
chipset at the Optical Networking and Communication Conference
& Exhibition (OFC) in San Diego, CA, from March 13-15,
2018.
The Telluride chipset addresses the intensifying demands for
efficient processing of burgeoning internet traffic by enabling
hyperscale data centers to transition from 100Gbps to 400Gbps
optical interconnects.
Confirmed guests to the company’s meeting room will witness the
best-in-class performance of this industry leading chipset that
includes products from the recently announced Telluride product
family; the MxL9354X PAM4 DSP SoC, and the MxL9154 56Gbaud PAM4
TIA.
The MxL9354X is a family of low-power high-performance PAM4 DSP
SoCs that enable 400Gbps optical modules using a 4x100Gbps optics
interface. These SoCs are suitable for use within QSFP-DD, OSFP and
COBO module form factors. Two options are currently available; the
MxL93542 that integrates an EA-EML driver with 1.8V PP SE swing,
and the MxL93543 that offers differential 800mV peak-to-peak swing
for non EA-EML-based optics.
The MxL9154 is a quad linear TIA that supports 4x100Gbps
receiver optical sub assembly (ROSA) modules. This TIA offers very
low input referred noise of 11pA/√Hz and linearity better than 3
percent while consuming only 200mW per channel.
The Telluride chipset enables optical module vendors to utilize
the latest PAM4-based 100Gbps wavelength technology and deliver
solutions with the best overall performance, power and cost.
“Rapid growth in cloud computing is driving the datacenter
transition from 100G optical interconnects to 400Gbps based on
4x100G technology,” said Justin Abbott, Senior Product Line Manager
at Lumentum. “We are pleased to see the introduction of MaxLinear’s
400Gbps chipset as it enables optical module vendors to accelerate
the industry’s transition to 400Gbps.”

MaxLinear would like to thank various ecosystem partners, such
as Keysight Technologies, who provided valuable high-speed optical
equipment and components to make this technology showcase
possible.

statements are based on management’s current, preliminary
expectations. In particular, our future operating results are
substantially dependent on our assumptions about market trends and
conditions and our expectations with respect to recently completed
acquisitions, including our ability to integrate our recently
completed acquisition of Exar Corporation. Additional risks and
uncertainties arising from our operations generally and our
recently completed acquisitions include intense competition in our
industry; our dependence on a limited number of customers for a
substantial portion of our revenues; uncertainties concerning how
end user markets for our products will develop; potential
uncertainties arising from continued consolidation among cable
television and satellite operators in our target markets and
continued consolidation among competitors within the semiconductor
industry generally; our ability to develop and introduce new and
enhanced products on a timely basis and achieve market acceptance
of those products, particularly as we seek to expand outside of our
historic markets; potential decreases in average selling prices for
our products; risks relating to intellectual property protection
and the prevalence of intellectual property litigation in our
industry; indemnification obligations of Exar arising from a recent
divestiture; the impact on our financial condition of acquisition
indebtedness and cash usage arising from the Exar transaction; our
reliance on a limited number of third party manufacturers; and our
lack of long-term supply contracts and dependence on limited
sources of supply. In addition to these risks and uncertainties,
investors should review the risks and uncertainties contained in
our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC),
including the information under the caption “Risk Factors” in our
