M/A-COM Technology Solutions Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:MTSI)
(“MACOM”), a leading supplier of high-performance RF, microwave,
millimeterwave and photonic semiconductor products, and Applied
Optoelectronics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAOI) (“AOI”), a leading provider of
fiber-optic access network products for the Internet datacenter,
cable broadband and fiber-to-the-home markets, today announced
their collaboration to support initial orders and production ramp
of 100G QSFP28 optical transceiver solutions for datacenter
applications.
Today, the QSFP28 transceiver is the predominant form factor for
100G switching and routing connectivity, and a key enabler as 100G
begins to ramp in datacenters. As part of the collaboration, AOI
will leverage MACOM’s broad portfolio of CDRs, drivers and TIA
chipsets in its QSFP28 solution. MACOM chipsets provide low power
and a small form factor which are critical enablers for the QSFP28
solutions.
“MACOM offers an extensive chipset product portfolio for
datacenter applications for both CWDM and PSM-4 applications that
is key for the transition of the mega-datacenter customers from 40G
to 100G,” said Joshua Yeh, Senior Vice President of AOI's Network
Equipment Module Business Unit. “Through this collaboration coupled
with our internally sourced 25G laser diodes and 100G light
engines, AOI is excited to offer customers volume production of
100G transceivers optimized for datacenters.”
“This multimillion dollar order from AOI marks the beginning of
a collaboration in support of AOI’s market leading position in the
100G optical datacenter access market, builds upon on our success
in the 100G Long-Haul and Metro optical market and underscores that
MACOM is well positioned to benefit as 100G continues to ramp in
datacenters,” said Preet Virk, Senior Vice President and General
Manager, Networks, MACOM. “We believe we have the requisite
technology, products and application support to enable datacenter
customers faster time to market while solving their most complex
connectivity issues.”
