When it comes to storage, small and medium businesses have a lot in common with large enterprises. Just like the Fortune 400, they need to ensure that data is backed up, retrievable and secure, and that data access complies with governmental regulations. Unfortunately, if you are a small business owner you also cope with some challenges the big guys don't have, budgets are small and your IT staff, if you even have one, may not have storage-specific expertise. Attend this webcast and learn storage strategies to meet your growing business demands. Register Now >
Picolight Inc., which designs and manufactures high-speed optoelectronic components and subsystems, said it has expanded its MAGNUS product family of parallel optical interconnects to offer a 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps) OC-192 12-channel parallel transponder.
This newest member of the MAGNUS product family supports the latest very-short-reach (VSR) standards to link networking equipment at distances up to 300 meters, company officials also said.
The MAGNUS OC-192/STM64 VSR4-1 transponder fully supports the Optical Internetworking Forum's (OIF) OC-192 VSR Interface Implementation Agreement (OIF-VSR4-01.0) for parallel optic links over multimode fiber. The OIF VSR implementation agreement recognizes the existence of a very-short-reach sector of the SONET market and allows an alternative to traditional, expensive OC-192 SONET optics.
By delivering fast, reliable interconnections, the MAGNUS VSR4-1 transponder removes bottlenecks between systems and lowers the current barriers to deploying 10 Gbps bandwidth near the edge of the network, officials said. The 10 Gbps parallel transponder also sets the stage for even faster, 40 Gbps parallel transponders in the near future.
Picolight's PL-LCM-00-543 OC-192 VSR4-1 parallel transponder module is sampling now, and will enter volume production in the second calendar quarter of 2002. It employs the easy-to-integrate 300-pin ball grid array host connector and is priced below $1,000 in high OEM volumes.
