Samsung, Ciena, join forces for 5G
Luceda Photonics launches Shanghai subsidiary office
SITRI, will further enhance collaboration efficiency. Luceda Photonics offers the IPKISS Photonics De- sign Platform, an integrated photonics design environment that enables researchers and companies to automate and integrate all aspects of their photonic design flow in one tool. Leveraging the benefits of its Python code-based approach, the platform enables IP management and enhances teamwork and design flow efficiency. IPKISS covers the complete PIC design flow, from initial idea to design, simulation and validation. It is equipped for niche solutions ranging from 5G, Internet of Things, FTTH, Lidar, Artificial Intelligence, Bio Sensing and Quantum Computing.
Belgium-based photonics manufacturer Luceda, has opened an office in Shanghai to provide products and services targeted at the Chinese market, as well as bringing resources closer to its customers and partners. Luceda has been a player in the Chinese market for the last four years and rates the Chinese region as the second most important market within its portfolio, with revenue doubling between FY19 and FY20. The team in Shanghai has a strong background in PIC and Electronics Design Automation in addition to professional experience at its Belgian HQ. The company says the proximity to fabrication partners such as CUMEC, IME-CAS, and
Ciena has agreed to couple its xHaul solutions with Samsung’s 5G solutions to support the increasing volume of 5G data traffic at the edge and within an increasingly distributed 5G architecture. The companies say that combining Samsung’s 5G RAN and Core with Ciena’s xHaul Routing and Switch- ing portfolio and next-gen- eration Manage, Control and Plan (MCP) domain controller will give custom- ers an optimised offer that takes full advantage of 5G services, while providing efficient ways to man- age massive data across networks and to the cloud. This will help accelerate the
deployment of advanced applications enhanced by 5G, such as network slicing, IoT and automation through AI. The combined offer will deliver a validated solution, providing more compatible, faster, and simplified implementations of 5G networks. The combined offer will comprise an end-to- end solution set including Ciena’s xHaul routing and switching portfolio, and next-generation MCP domain controller, and Samsung’s core and RAN portfolio, including virtual- ised RAN (vRAN) solutions, baseband units and radios. The resulting solution set is available immediately.
