PacketFabric Selects Inphi COLORZ® to Quickly Scale Metro Capacity Between Data Centers
February 10 2020 - 8:00AM
Inphi Corporation (NYSE: IPHI), a leader in high-speed data
movement interconnects, and PacketFabric, Inc. the leading
Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) platform, today announced
PacketFabric’s selection of Inphi COLORZ® 100GbE QSFP28 DWDM optics
to increase network capacity between metro data center locations.
With up to 4Tb/s of bandwidth over a single fiber, COLORZ
enables PacketFabric to dramatically scale its private layer 2
networking platform. PacketFabric has modernized network services
by applying cloud-based concepts to provisioning, delivery, and
billing.
“Our ability to deliver a cost effective 100GbE metro Ethernet
service hinges on quickly turning up underlying optical metro
connectivity,” said Lew Maggio, Director of Network Operations,
PacketFabric. “The DWDM infrastructure modernization offered by
COLORZ reduces our deployment time by over 60% for in metro
capacity, allowing us to add terabytes of capacity in response to
customer demands.”
Inphi’s COLORZ 100GbE QSFP28 DWDM optical platform leverages
Silicon Photonics technology and enables DWDM connectivity directly
into switch or router ports. By moving to IP over DWDM and removing
transponders, COLORZ not only provides lower cost and lower power
but simplifies the operational complexity of adding DWDM network
capacity. This allows PacketFabric to maximize cost-efficiency and
performance across its regional data center locations.
“We are delighted to support PacketFabric’s vision and ability
to build a disruptive SDN networking architecture,” said Tomas Maj,
Senior Director, Product Marketing, Optical Interconnect at Inphi.
“Low power and cost effective pay as you grow 100G DWDM optics are
a critical enabler for efficiently connecting metro data
centers.”
