"Spectra7 has developed unique technology that not only helps extend data center copper based cable solutions but also minimizes cable bulk which aids in cable routing and maximizes system air flow," said Brian Kirk, director of engineering for HSIO products at Amphenol ICC. "The demonstrations at DesignCon will highlight the key advantages of Spectra7's technology in our interconnect products."
"Amphenol is a leader in the data center interconnect solutions market," said Spectra7 CEO Raouf Halim. "These joint demonstrations at 100/200/400 Gbps showing both NRZ and PAM4, are another major milestone in the validation of our data center technology."
Amphenol will be showcasing products with Spectra7's GaugeChanger™ technology at Booth #833.
Spectra7 will be showcasing its GaugeChanger™ technology at Booth #851.
