The 200G PAM4 demo, available for viewing from March 8–10, 2022 in booth #5409 on the OFC 2022 expo floor, highlights the 200G PAM4 signaling that is currently being deployed by Tencent as part of their major data center expansion. The cables feature Spectra7's GaugeChanger™ GC2502 chips. GaugeChanger™ is an innovative and disruptive technology that allows copper to extend much longer lengths without the cost and power penalty of optics. It works equally well at 25 Gbps NRZ and 50 Gbps PAM-4 enabling new connector standards of 100, 200 and 400 Gbps.
Spectra7 estimates that Tencent is reducing their interconnect CAPEX spending by approximately 50% by using ACCs instead of AOC. Additionally, power consumption is dramatically reduced making Spectra7's technology a smart choice for Tencent's ESG strategy.
"We are delighted to be participating in this leading-edge demo of Ethernet technology," said Spectra7's CEO Raouf Halim. "With the buildout of 200G now in full swing at Tencent, we believe OFC 2022 is the perfect venue to highlight our 200G GaugeChanger™ product."
The Ethernet Alliance interoperability demonstrations showcasing Spectra7's GaugeChanger™ technology will be in booth #5409
Spectra7 will be hosting meetings with customers and partners on the show floor. To schedule a meeting on March 8, 9 or 10, please contact Annie Hoang at Email Contact
