PRODUCT FOCUS
Suncall America expands Uniboot range
The compact and entirely passive devices enable 10GbE and beyond across kilometres of legacy OM1 and OM2 multimode fibres through avoiding the limitation imposed by di erential group delay. The devices are compatible with 1310 nm as well as 1550 nm transceivers. Single port as well as 12 port versions are available in a compact package as small as 90x20x10 mm. The devices are ready for upgrading the fibre optic infrastructure found in data centres, large buildings and multi-building campuses. Modular Photonics presents new line of photonic mode multiplexers
Suncall America has announced an addition to its Uniboot range, with the LC Push-Pull connector. The Push-Pull connector combines a simple installation and removal process, with space utilisation e ciency and was designed for use in high density applications, requiring no installation or extraction space above or below the connector. Utilising a simple reverse polarity feature, users remove the push-pull tab, turn the connector over, reinstall the tab and the polarity is reversed.
Smartoptics expands 100G QSFP28 product range transceiver family
Smartoptics has announced the launch of four new models to its QSFP28 transceiver range. The SO-QSFP28-LR4-2L and SO-QSFP28- LR4-10L are direct-modulated laser (DML) diodes for 2km and 10km applications. The SO- QSFP28-SWDM4 uses shortwave wavelength division multiplexing to couple four lanes of optical data onto multimode fibre and the SO-QSFP28-ER4 transceiver enables single
channel connectivity up to 25km over standard singlemode fibre, to enable data centre interconnection. All transceivers are compliant with the latest Fibre Channel and Ethernet standards at data rates up to 100G. The company has stated that interoperability with major switch brands is guaranteed and that users can easily reprogram QSFP28 receivers for use with other applications. AFL has announced a new fibre optic cable structure, with proven performance to 300°C, which is intended for long-term installation scenarios. The cable can be constructed with Stainless Steel 316, Inconel 825 or Incolloy 625 materials, and the company is able to customise the design to meet specific needs including di erent fibre counts, fibre types, metal types, tube sizes, belting materials, armour type, armour size, armour count, encapsulation types, colour, print, packaging and length. Pure core singlemode, multimode and custom optical fibre structures are available. Performance up to 300°C was confirmed in the company’s manufacturing facilities using a “unique processing of the fibres and cables.” The new high-temperature structure is available with unique specialty optical fibres, including pure core single-mode and multimode. AFL is exhibiting at AngaCom 2017. Hall 7, stand B79a. AFL develops high temperature fibre optic cable structure
Intel Silicon Photonics 100G optical transceivers
Intel Silicon Photonics optical transceivers enable data centres to cost-e ectively deploy 100 Gigabit per second solutions. The 100G CWDM4 (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing 4-lane) QSFP28 optical transceiver is a small form-factor, high- speed, and low power consumption product, targeted for use in optical interconnects for data communications applications. The high bandwidth module supports 100GbE optical links over single-mode fibre. It features up to 2km reach on duplex single-mode fibre, with high speed and low-power consumption, and is designed to be compliant with 100G
CWDM4 and CLR4 MSA, QSFP28, and CAUI- 4 specifications. The 100G PSM4 (Parallel Single Mode fibre 4-lane) QSFP28 optical transceiver is a small form factor, high speed, and low power consumption product, targeted for use in optical interconnects for data communications applications. The high bandwidth module supports 100GbE optical links over single-mode fibre. It features up to 2km reach on parallel single-mode fibre, and is designed to be compliant with 100G PSM4, QSFP28, and CAUI-4 specifications. Intel is exhibiting at AngaCom2017. Hall 7, stand MS10.
