Oclaro has begun sampling a 100G QSFP28 client-side transceiver that meets both the CWDM4 MSA and CLR4 Alliance optical interface specifications, as well as the IEEE 802.3bm CAUI-4 electrical interface specification.
“The key to our success in the 100G pluggable transceiver market has been our proprietary indium phosphide laser technology,” said Yves LeMaitre, President of Oclaro’s Optical Connectivity Business. “With our new QSFP28 100G transceiver, mega-scale data center operators will be able to transition from 40G to 100G on their existing single mode fiber infrastructure without significantly expanding footprint, cost or power consumption.”
