#ECOC23: Source Photonics intros 800Gbps SR transceivers and active cables

Source Photonics announced the availability of 800Gbps short reach multimode (MMF) transceivers and active cables for AI cluster connectivity. The devices are powered by the latest 5nm DSP technology and Linear Direct Drive implementation.

The 800G OSFP and 400G QSFP112 optical transceivers, active optical cables and active copper cables are fine engineered to exceed both the standard 800GbE and InfiniBand NDR performance requirements. 

The new offerings enable the datacenter connectivity speeds scaling to 800Gbps faster, using conventional cost-effective VCSEL technology while accelerating time-to-market deployment of plug-and-play pluggable optics.

“Source Photonics’ global engineering and manufacturing footprints have been helping our current customers massively deploy robust 400G network infrastructures worldwide with our market leading single mode transceiver products empowered by in-house EML lasers. Our continuous efforts working with industry partners to reduce the Cost-per-Gigabit and Power-per-Gigabit will lead AI/ML cluster connectivity more affordable and less power cost in operation”, said John Wang, CEO of Source Photonics, “The introduction of 800G short reach optics and cables covers well the 1m to 100m connectivity needs, and will significantly improve our customers’ time-to-market AI/ML clusters deployment.”
