SAXONBURG, Pa., April 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (NYSE:COHR), a global leader in photonics, will demonstrate a 1.6T-SR8 optical transceiver at OFC 2025. This transceiver incorporates advanced 200G vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and photodiodes produced by Coherent. VCSEL-based transceivers have established dominance in data center environments due to their exceptional cost-effectiveness and low power consumption for short-reach connections. Additionally, surging demand from artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads continue to drive significant growth in such short-reach transceiver solutions. "We are proactively demonstrating this
SAXONBURG, Pa., March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (NYSE:COHR), a global leader in photonics, will show a live demonstration of its silicon photonics-based 1.6T-DR8 transceiver module using a Marvell® Ara 3nm optical digital signal processor (DSP) at OFC 2025. This transceiver features 200 Gbps electrical and optical interfaces. While the most advanced DSPs deployed in datacom transceivers today use 5nm node sizes, there is a constant push to an even smaller node size in order to minimize electrical power dissipation. Coherent's transceiver in this demonstration uses Marvell Ara DSP, a 3nm 1.6T PAM4 optical DSP, which aims to reduce the power dissipation of 1.6T optical t
