RECENT PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENTS
- Significant Advancements in VCSEL Performance
Bandwidth improvement in Coherent's vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), paving the way for use in next-generation optical interconnects that will operate at 200 Gbps per lane. 200 Gbps VCSELs are expected to power future 1.6 Tbps transceivers.
- 6-inch Indium Phosphide Semiconductor Wafer Fabs
6-inch InP wafer fabrication introduced in both Coherent's U.S. and European fabs to significantly reduce die cost for InP optoelectronic devices including lasers, detectors, and electronics.
- I-Temp 100G ZR QSFP28-DCO Module
Industry-first 100G ZR QSFP28 digital coherent optics (DCO) transceiver supporting an industrial operating temperature range; designed for deployment in outdoor environments, this module utilizes Coherent's Steelerton™ digital signal processor (DSP), a purpose-built DSP component family launched in 2022, in conjunction with an efficient silicon photonics optical front-end and a power-optimized tunable laser.
- High-Power Uncooled Pump Laser Module
New uncooled pump laser modules able to deliver, in a compact 10-pin form factor, up to 1000 mW of output power for submarine applications and up to 2x700 mW of output power for terrestrial applications.
