SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Oclaro,
Inc. (NASDAQ: OCLR), a leading provider and innovator of
optical communications solutions, today announced that it will be
demonstrating its CFP2-DCO module at next week's ECOC Exhibition in
Rome, Italy (Oclaro meeting rooms
SC2-B & SC2-C by appointment only). Oclaro's CFP2-DCO is based
on its proven Indium Phosphide photonic integrated circuit (PIC)
technology for tunable lasers, modulators and receivers, and builds
upon the company's proven success as the market leader in CFP2-ACO
modules. Interoperability between Oclaro's CFP2-DCO and Acacia's
AC200 CFP2-DCO has been successfully demonstrated at both 100 Gbps
and 200 Gbps data rates through joint testing in Oclaro's labs.
"Customers are looking for a plug-and-play digital solution
leveraging the recognized performance of Oclaro's Indium Phosphide
PICs," said Beck Mason, President of the Integrated Photonics
Business at Oclaro. "By delivering its first CFP2-DCO, based on
Acacia's Meru DSP, Oclaro expands its addressable market while
leveraging the proven value-add of its ACO platform. This live
demonstration represents a significant milestone in the industry
because it highlights the availability of two fully interoperable
supply sources for these critical components, which will help
encourage broader adoption by network operators."
The CFP2-DCO is a complementary product offering to the CFP2-ACO
product family where customers are able to utilize their DSP of
choice in order to achieve optimum performance and cost. The
CFP2-ACO remains a critical, flagship product for Oclaro with
proven high-volume production capability that leverages Oclaro's
Indium Phosphide PIC development and production expertise.
The CFP2-DCO integrates the coherent DSP into the pluggable
module, and by operating at data rates up to 200 Gbps, can deliver
double the capacity of current-generation CFP-DCO solutions in a
much smaller, lower power, pluggable module. This improved density,
coupled with the digital host interface, enables customers to
quickly and cost effectively roll-out 200 Gbps networks.
About the Oclaro CFP2-DCO
At the heart of Oclaro's
CFP2-DCO is its 43Gbaud Coherent Transmitter Receiver Optical
Sub-Assembly (TROSA.) The TROSA leverages proven Indium Phosphide
PIC technology from Oclaro's highly successful CFP2-ACO to achieve
industry leading optical performance in a small form factor.
The digital host interface of the CFP2-DCO enables simpler
integration between module and system, which results in faster
service activation and facilitates a pay-as-you-grow deployment
model for telecommunication providers. As a result, the cost of
additional ports can be deferred until additional services are
needed.
Availability
Oclaro expects its CFP2-DCO module to be
in production in early calendar 2019.
