Scheduled to take place at Messe Frankfurt, this year’s event will highlight advancements that aim to enhance optical communications networks significantly.
Latest Product Launches
Coherent is thrilled to unveil a range of state-of-the-art products that address the evolving demands of the telecommunications sector.
Introducing the Industry's First L-band 800G ZR/ZR+ Pluggable Transceivers
This revolutionary transceiver marks a significant leap in optical transmission, increasing capacity from 32 Tbps to an impressive 64 Tbps. By uniquely integrating C- and L-band wavelengths, it enables hyperscalers and telecom carriers to make the most of their fiber capacity. The transceiver boasts a 140 Gbaud IC-TROSA-integrated coherent optical subassembly, delivering high optical output power while leveraging Coherent's advanced InP platform capabilities.
Uncooled Dual Chip Micro Pump Laser Module
The recently launched uncooled dual-chip lasers offer outstanding output power of 2x400 mW, all while keeping power consumption low. This makes them perfect for environments with fluctuating temperatures. Their compact design makes them an optimal choice for next-generation coherent transceivers, particularly for data center interconnects and amplifiers designed for metro and long-haul networks.
Novel Analog Optical Multi-Link Modules
These modules, crafted for next-gen analog optical links, operate up to the Ka-band and provide a major upgrade over traditional RF links. Thanks to their low power usage and resistance to interference, they open new possibilities for both terrestrial and space applications, becoming essential components in modern communication networks.
