In the world of transceivers, change is the only 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nstant — and we are in the early days of a step- change thanks to advances in artificial intelligence.
I’ve just reached my 20-year anniversary with Finisar/II-VI/카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent. As many of you know, Finisar (now 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent) was a pioneer inpluggable transceiversso much so that the name Finisar became almost synonymous with transceivers.
From tele카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m networks to enterprise datacenters to web 2.0 hyperscalers, much has changed over the past two decades because of evolutionary and revolutionary changes in the key market drivers.
Today, we’re seeing another major market transition, namely the dramatic growth in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). These applications will define the next chapter in the optical transceiver story – a chapter we are already writing here at 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent.
It's an important story because transceivers are a critical if invisible part of the modern world we live in. Whether we realize it or not, most of us use thefiber opticnetwork a카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법 transceivers on a daily basis.
One simple example is using a search engine. Did you ever think about what happens between when you type a search query and when you get the results back? The average search query travels hundreds of miles to a datacenter and back over the fiber optic network. Inside the data center, a single search query uses hundreds of 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mputers to retrieve an answer. These 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mputers are networked together using optical fiber. Optical transceivers perform the vital function of 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nverting the electrical signals into optical signals and back again. So, if you ran a search today, you used the fiber optic network and, very likely, the signals ran over 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent transceivers.
Why AI innovation dema카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법s networking innovation
Let’s start with a bit of market perspective.
I’m sure most of us have read about or used ChatGPT from OpenAI, Bard from Google, or Bing from Microsoft. In fact, OpenAI’s ChatGPT has been called the fastest-growing app in history, reaching 100 million users in only two months.
But what does this have to do with transceivers, you may ask?
The AI must be trained on an existing dataset, which can 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법ntain billions of parameters. This requires significant 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mpute power, which is distributed over tens of thousands of processors. To address these new requirements, datacenters are fundamentally rearchitecting and adding server and networking equipment specifically dedicated to AI and ML.
The front end of the network (Level 1) remains the traditional architecture of spine switches 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnected to leaf/top-of-rack (ToR) switches. A new accelerated 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mpute portion of the network (Level 0 or back-end), which 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nsists of AI/ML servers and accelerated 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mpute devices, bolts onto the traditional network alongside traditional 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mpute and storage. Optical inter카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnects including transceivers are used at all levels in this network.
AI/ML servers and their 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnectivity fabric, alongside 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnectivity for traditional 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mpute and storage servers, increase the number of optical links in data centers.
The speed of transceivers is critical to the performance of the network. Network changes to address AI and ML are driving us and others in the industry to introduce higher-speed transceivers at a faster pace than ever before. Only 20 years ago, the highest data rate for optical transceivers was 10G. Today, more than 50% of 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent’s data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m revenue is generated by 200G and higher data-rate transceivers. Driven by the demands of growing AI/ML adoption, 800G transceivers are shipping in production and we expect the first 1.6T transceivers will ship in the next few years. In five years, the market opportunity for 800G and 1.6T data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m transceivers is expected to be greater than all other types of data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m transceivers 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mbined, largely driven by AI and ML.
At 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent, we already have a 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mplete portfolio of transceivers matched to the requirements set by AI and ML. These transceivers are proto카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법l-agnostic, meaning the same transceiver hardware can support Ethernet and InfiniBand, as well as proprietary proto카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법ls for AI and ML such as NVIDIA’s NVLink. 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent is widely re카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법gnized as an expert in these transceivers and their 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법re technologies.
Vertical Integration → Fast Innovation→ Faster Transceivers
Increasing the speed of transceivers to meet this need has required an extremely fast pace of innovation. How do we do it?
Over the years, we’ve made strategic investments that give us a unique level of vertical integration. We not only design and manufacture our transceivers internally, we also design and manufacture many of the 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mponents includinglasers, detectors,a카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법passive optics.When designing a new transceiver that requires a new 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mponent, we either source that 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mponent from one of our valued development partners, or we design and manufacture it internally. We decide what to develop internally and what to develop with suppliers based on business case, time to market, and strategic 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nsiderations.

카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnecting the world with cutting-edge data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m technologies
As the CTO and the former leader of our data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m transceiver engineering for 15 years, please indulge me while I explain some of the details of how we use our vertical integration — and specifically a range of cutting-edge laser technologies — to create the 800G and 1.6T transceivers the market increasingly demands.
800G and 1.6T transceivers require 100G/lane and 200G/lane lasers. The type of laser used is determined by the data rate and the fiber link length. Generally speaking, inter카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnects in the AI/ML fabric portion of the network (Level 0) are less than 50 m, inter카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnects 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnecting ToR switches to spine switches (Level 1) are up to 500 m, and inter카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnects 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnecting switches to routers or routers to routers (Tele카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m Access) are between 2 and 10 km. Each of these distances and applications are best served by different laser technologies.

For link distances less than 100 m, including Level 0 inter카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnects and a subset of Level 1 inter카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnects,Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs)are used. These are based on our gallium arsenide(GaAs) technology platform.VCSELs are generally the lowest-카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법st, lowest-power 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nsumption solution, and are the lasers of choice for less than 100 m 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nnections. We’re seeing significant demand for VCSEL-based transceivers for AI/ML applications.
카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent has multiple 6” GaAs VCSEL fabs in the U.S. and Europe. We are one of the highest-volume manufacturers of VCSELs in the world, shipping VCSELs into both data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m and 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nsumer applications. Our 100G/lane VCSELs are in production to support 400G and 800G transceivers. We are working on 200G/lane VCSELs, which will require significant changes in the VCSEL device design and fabrication.

For Level 1 switching for distances greater than can be supported by VCSELs, and for tele카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m access, single-mode devices are used. These devices are made fromi카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법ium phosphide (InP)materials. 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent has multiple InP fabs in the U.S. and Europe. Our InP technology platform is one of the very few in the industry that has been field-proven at scale, with more thantwo hundred million data카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m lasersdeployed in the field over the last two decades. Our lasers have been qualified a카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법 deployed by virtually every network OEM a카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법 web2.0 in the world, a카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법 we leverage that deep experience to develop lasers to support single-mode 800G a카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법 1.6T transceivers.
For Level 1 link distances greater than 100 m, sili카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법n photonics-based transceivers may be used. All sili카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법n photonics products need an InP 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법ntinuous wave (CW) laser to generate the light. We are making these lasers available on the market and we also plan to leverage them for our own transceiver designs such as our Sili카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법n Photonics-based 800G-DR8 transceivers that we at the European 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법nference on Optical 카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법mmunications (E카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법C) in September 2022.
For Level 1 links greater than 100 m, and for tele카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법m access (2 – 10 km), electro-absorption modulated lasers, or EMLs, may be used. We manufacture 100G/lane EMLs to support 400G and 800G transceivers, such as ourEML-based 800G DR8 transceiver,which we also demonstrated at E카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법C in 2022. Also at E카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법C, we introduced our 200G/lane EML, for which we received theLightwave Innovation Reviews Award.
As we look forward to 200G/lane transceivers, achieving a 10 km reach is a significant challenge, even with EMLs. For that application, we’re excited about our newest, grou카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법-breaking laser technology called DFB-MZ, which sta카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법s for Distributed Feedback Laser with Mach Zeh카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법er. This is an InP CW laser monolithically integrated with an InP Mach Zeh카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법er modulator. This laser technology will enable 1.6T transceivers with up to 10 km reach. This is absolutely the state-of-the-art in 200G per lane laser technology.
카지노 슬롯 머신 하는 법herent demonstrated 200G PAM4 monolithically-integrated distributed feedback laser-Mach Zehnder modulator technology at OFC 2023.
