Three Coherent Products Honored With Lightwave Innovation Awards as Top Solutions in the Optical Networking Industry
March 14 2024 - 4:30PM
Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR), a global leader in materials,
networking, and lasers, announced today that three of its products
received awards in the 2024 Lightwave Innovation Reviews.
“We are excited and honored to receive recognition from
Lightwave’s Innovation Reviews,” said Dr. Sanjai Parthasarathi,
Chief Marketing Officer, Coherent. “These well-known awards, so
highly respected in the optical communications industry, recognize
our continuous innovation in coherent technologies, from components
to pluggable modules. We provide differentiated solutions enabling
high-speed transmission at 800 Gbps leveraging our industry-leading
indium phosphide technology platform. Our new WaveShaper product
further enhances an already exceptional portfolio of instruments by
supporting an extended DWDM spectrum, enabling research and testing
activities for optical transmission in the O-band.”
The following three products were recognized:
140 Gbaud IC-TROSA for 800G DCO (Digital Coherent
Optics): the 140 Gbaud integrated
coherent transmitter-receiver optical subassembly (IC-TROSA) was
recognized in the category of Optical Components. Featuring fully
embedded control and management electronics, this InP-based
component contains all functions to enable high optical output
power and low power dissipation for 800G coherent transmission.
This complete coherent optical engine available in both C- and
L-band versions is the industry’s first to enable 800G QSFP-DD and
OSFP digital coherent optical (DCO) pluggable transceivers in
support of higher-capacity, lower-power, and lower-cost DWDM
networks.
800G coherent pluggable DCO Module in QSFP-DD form
factor: the new 800G pluggable DCO in
QSFP-DD received an award in the Optical Transceivers and
Transponders category. This module is the first digital coherent
optical module (DCO) in the ultra-compact QSFP-DD form factor. Its
compact form factor allows it to be plugged directly into routers
and switches for IP-over-DWDM architectures, and its high
transmitter optical output power of 0 dBm makes it optimal for
datacenter interconnect, metro, and regional network applications
with ROADMs. This transceiver is capable of supporting up to 1000
km fiber reach at 800 Gbps line rate and even longer reaches at
400G.
WaveShaper 4000 B/O band programmable optical spectrum
synthesizer: the WaveShaper 4000 B/O band
programmable optical spectrum synthesizer earned a “superb” score
of 5.0 in the category of Lab/Production Test Equipment. It enables
the design and prototyping of DWDM ROADMs and optical nodes in the
O-band thanks to its huge 16.5 THz spectrum, covering 165 x 100 GHz
channels. It supports both development and production testing in
CWDM and LR4/LR8 applications. Judges commented, “This product will
see increasing application in two areas: expanding traditional WDM
(wavelength division multiplexing) transport into O-band for
additional capacity and the design and testing of multi-wavelength
short-reach interconnects in O-band.”
