Key developments for Finisar Corp. (FNSR)
Finisar Corp. Demonstrates 120 Gb/s CXP to QSFP Active Breakout Cable at SuperComputing 2009
11/17/2009
Finisar Corp. announced the first public demonstration of a 120 Gb/s CXP to QSFP active breakout cable at the SuperComputing 2009 (SC09) exhibition. The active optical cable contains a single CXP transceiver at one end and three 40 Gb/s QSFP transceivers at the other end to provide maximum flexibility in high performance computing and network infrastructure environments. A significant benefit of this multi-connector cable is that it provides high density switches with connectivity to multiple top-of-rack switches and/or server nodes. Compliant with both CXP and QSFP specifications, this breakout cable provides a hot-pluggable, low power, low-weight, and flexible solution for high port-count network topologies. In addition, the company will demonstrate an active 10 Gb/s Ethernet copper cable, the latest member of the Laserwire(R) cable family targeted at server connectivity applications. The cable is optimized for very short, low cost, intra-rack links. It is designed to comply with the SFF-8461 specification through the use of SFP+ to Laserwire adapters. During SC09, the company will also demonstrate a new QSFP to Laserwire adapter. This device will drive the convergence of multiple connector form factors in data center applications. It will enable system manufacturers to design a single PCB layout for both 10G and 40G solutions. Also on display will be the company's extended family of high-performance active optical cables. The family includes Quadwire(TM), a 40 Gb/s parallel cable for 40GbE and InfiniBand QDR, as well as C.wire(TM), a 150 Gb/s parallel cable for 100GbE and InfiniBand 12xQDR applications.
