Oclaro, Inc. announced that it will be demonstrating its CFP2-DCO module at next week's ECOC Exhibition in Rome, Italy (Oclaro meeting rooms SC2-B & SC2-C by appointment only). Oclaro's CFP2-DCO is based on its proven Indium Phosphide photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology for tunable lasers, modulators and receivers, and builds upon the company's proven success as the market leader in CFP2-ACO modules. Interoperability between Oclaro's CFP2-DCO and Acacia's AC200 CFP2-DCO has been successfully demonstrated at both 100 Gbps and 200 Gbps data rates through joint testing in Oclaro's labs. The CFP2-DCO is a complementary product offering to the CFP2-ACO product family where customers are able to utilize their DSP of choice in order to achieve optimum performance and cost. The CFP2-ACO remains a critical, product for Oclaro with proven high-volume production capability that leverages Oclaro's Indium Phosphide PIC development and production expertise. The CFP2-DCO integrates the coherent DSP into the pluggable module, and by operating at data rates up to 200 Gbps, can deliver double the capacity of current-generation CFP-DCO solutions in a much smaller, lower power, pluggable module. This improved density, coupled with the digital host interface, enables customers to quickly and cost effectively roll-out 200 Gbps networks. Oclaro expects its CFP2-DCO module to be in production in early calendar 2019.
