NeoPhotonics is providing sample availability of its first 40G transceiver module for high speed Ethernet client side applications.
The new pluggable transceiver increases the data rate per module from 10G -- in the case of XFP or SFP+ transceivers -- to 40G, and is designed to meet increasing bandwidth demand in today’s data centers.
Compared to a traditional 10G approach, the new module transmits four times the data over single mode fiber at distances up to 10 kilometers.
The new NeoPhotonics product is designed primarily to connect gigabit and terabit routers and switches with next-generation high-capacity transport systems.
