Demonstration at SuperComputing 2018 Show
Highlights 200/400G QSFP-DD Solution
Spectra7 Microsystems Inc. (TSX:SEV) (“Spectra7” or the
“Company”), a leading provider of high-performance analog
semiconductor products for broadband connectivity markets, and
Genesis Connected Solutions, an innovative high speed interconnect
supplier, today announced that they are showcasing their latest
data center cable products using Spectra7’s GaugeChangerTM active
copper technology at the Supercomputing 2018 (SC18) show at the Kay
Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, TX from November
12-15.
“Spectra 7 has developed unique technology that not only helps
extend data center copper-based cable solutions but also
significantly reduces power and cost when compared to optical
solutions,” said Mick Felton, director of engineering at
Genesis. “The demonstration of a 5m QSFP-DD cable at SC18
highlights the key advantages of Spectra7’s technology in our
interconnect products.”
“Genesis is an innovation leader in the data center interconnect
solutions market," said Spectra7 CEO Raouf Halim. “This joint
demonstration in the QSFP-DD format showing both NRZ and PAM4, is
another major milestone in the validation of our data center
technology.”
GaugeChangerTM 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.
Genesis will be showcasing products with Spectra7’s
GaugeChangerTM technology at Booth #4348.
