The Semtech FiberEdge 200G laser driver, together with Coherent’s 200G EML, delivers a high-performance and low distortion solution in the uncharted territory of 200G per lane.

“Semtech continues to demonstrate commitment to innovation in high-speed optical markets by working with industry leaders like Coherent,” said Nicola Bramante, senior product line manager for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Products Group. “The collaboration with Coherent on Semtech’s 200G per lane technology is a proof point in interoperability of optics with Semtech’s latest FiberEdge developments, ensuring a clear path toward 200G-based 1.6T and 3.2T future optical transceiver deployments in data centers.”

“We’re very excited to collaborate with Semtech to develop the new state-of-the-art in transceiver technology that pairs the 200G EML from Coherent and the 200G PAM4 laser driver from Semtech,” said Dr. Sanjai Parthasarathi, chief marketing officer at Coherent. “The devices pair up seamlessly to achieve 200G per lane transmission, heralding a new era in transceiver technology. This demonstration validates a technology that is capable today of enabling several generations of terabit transceivers tomorrow.”

The joint 200G solution will be demonstrated at Coherent’s booth #1 during the European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC) 2022, Sept. 18-22, in Basel, Switzerland. Register here.
