Applications and ResearchOnly 6 months after the launch of its 100Gbps DWDM transceiver product family in March 2016, EFFECT Photonics is now demonstrating the ability to achieve 500Gbps using PAM-4 (4-level Pulse Amplitude Modulation) up to 75km, with its Optical ‘System-on-Chip’ photonic integration technology. This is the result of ongoing collaboration with the Technical University of […]
Technologies and ProductsEFFECT Photonics will be demonstrating its optical ‘System-on-Chip’ technology platform at ECOC. This platform integrates all of the active and passive components of a DWDM system within a single chip. This combined with EFFECT’s novel packaging technology eliminates the need for the usual traditional ‘gold box’. Port density is increased by over 6-times and operational […]
Technologies and ProductsPhotonic integration start-up, Effect Photonics is launching its first product family based on its optical ‘System-on-Chip’ technology platform which integrates all the active and passive components of a DWDM system within a single chip, without traditional gold box packaging. This launch is the culmination of 5 years work to bring the technology to market–readiness. Effect […]
