Acacia Communications Named “Best 5G Architecture and Deep-Fiber Framework” Provider
July 09 2018 - 8:30AM
Acacia Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:ACIA), a leading provider of
high-speed coherent optical interconnect products, today announced
it was recognized for “Best 5G Architecture and Deep-Fiber
Framework” at this year’s Next Generation Optical Networking (NGON)
and DCI 2018 event that took place from June 26-28 in Nice, France.
The awards recognize the achievements of operators, data centers
and solution providers in the optical networking industry. The
“Best 5G Architecture and Deep-Fiber Framework” honor was based on
innovative contributions Acacia has made that have advanced its
customers and the optical networking industry. Submissions
were judged by a panel of network operators and industry analyst
firms.
“We are honored to accept this prestigious award,” said Raj
Shanmugaraj, President and Chief Executive Officer of Acacia
Communications. “Based on our experience, we see coherent moving
from metro core to access aggregation networks such as 5G backhaul
and fiber deep Remote PHY for cable access. Access networks
delivering high bandwidth services could dramatically increase
energy requirements to power and cool the equipment providing these
services. We believe Acacia is on the forefront of providing the
high performance, low power, compact form factor solutions
necessary to help enable data centers to run on sustainable
energy.”
Shorter reach applications are believed to be an emerging
opportunity for coherent optical interconnects, and are receiving
significant attention from industry standards organizations such as
CableLabs that has published coherent standards for cable access
networks.
On June 25, 2018, Acacia announced the introduction of two new
high-speed coherent optical interconnect products for “ZR”
applications – CFP2-DCO ZR and CFO-DCO ZR. These products
were designed to address the aforementioned 5G and fiber deep
applications, as well as data center edge and enterprise campus
applications. In addition, Acacia’s CFP2-DCO module is
well-suited to the requirements of the emerging coherent access
market to help network operators reduce operational and capital
expenses, increase reach and accelerate time-to-market of
high-capacity solutions.
