TAIPEI CITY, Taiwan, May 30, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Luxshare-ICT, a leader of low power connectivity solutions for 100G, 200G, and 400G port enabled networks and Innovium, Inc., a leading provider of networking switch solutions for data centers, today announced the successful interoperability of direct attached Active Copper Cables (ACC), and Active Optic Cables (AOC) connectivity solution with Innovium’s industry-leading 12.8Tbps TERALYNX™ switch silicon. The companies will demonstrate their products live at Computex, to be held May 28 thru June 1, 2019 at the Nangang Exhibition Center and the World Trade Center Exhibition Center.
As customers adopt 400G for data center connectivity, the ability to achieve longer reach using 56G PAM4 technology over Direct Attach Cables (DAC) offer customers a major cost savings for high-bandwidth inter-rack connectivity vs currently-available optical solutions. Luxshare-ICT’s 400G AOC QSFP-DD cable use 7 watt maximum per plug cable end which is the lowest power consumption currently available and 50% less versus competing products.
“The extended reach capability of active copper cables (ACC) and leading-edge technology 400G active optical cables (AOC) enables data center customers to drastically reduce cap-ex by leveraging high radix solutions like Innovium’s TERALYNX switch to span across multiple racks”, said Amit Sanyal, VP of Product Management and Marketing at Innovium. “Innovium, the only provider of a low-latency, programmable 12.8Tbps switch silicon in the market, is excited to partner with Luxshare-ICT to announce the successful demonstration of 400GbE interoperability with Luxshare's broad range of both Passive, Active Copper interconnect cable assemblies (ACC) as well as Active Optical cable assemblies (AOC)”.
“We are excited in partnering with Innovium to demonstrate the performance of our unique interconnect technologies designed with advanced features to achieve the speed, signal integrity, EMI containment and thermal efficiencies needed to ramp up to next-generation equipment and networking platforms. This collaboration highlights our vision to build relationships that benefit our customers and partners, and provide flexible solutions to their toughest challenges”, said Henning Hansen, Luxshare-ICT, VP Global sales & advanced technologies.
“Spectra7 is integral in helping to drive the future of the data center interconnects industry, and we are proud to be collaborating with them to demonstrate next-generation high-speed Active Copper Cable solutions,” said Jinhua Chen, Data Center GM at Luxshare-ICT.
