SAN JOSE, Calif., March 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/
-- Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ: XLNX) will introduce multiple
industry-first solutions for ultra-high bandwidth optical networks
at OFC 2016. Targeting OTN and Datacenter Interconnect (DCI)
applications, these never publicly demoed solutions enable systems
OEMs to deliver fast-to-market, efficient and scalable transport of
big data across data centers and optical transport networks. With
data center traffic ever increasing, data center and optical
network operators are constantly looking for efficient use of
bandwidth and bandwidth scalability. Working closely with fellow
industry leaders, Xilinx addresses these issues with multiple
cutting-edge demonstrations at this year's show. To learn more
about solutions from Xilinx and its ecosystem, visit Xilinx at OFC
Booth #3457, March 22-24, at the
Anaheim Convention Center,
Anaheim, CA.

- 200G and 300G FlexE Transport Solution
World's first
implementation of a "flexible transport" using flexible Ethernet
(FlexE) in the FPGA as a client to the variable rate line optics.
The demo showcases Xilinx's FlexE solution featuring the Xilinx
Virtex® UltraScale™ VU190 device with FlexE IP connected to the
Acacia AC400-U coherent transponder module supporting flexible
transmission rates with up to 400Gb/s capacity. The combined set up
demonstrates next generation transport which allows for
maximization of optical link budget on long haul and data center
interconnect links. Xilinx FlexE IP is available now for early
access.
- Bandwidth on Demand with 250G FlexE
Solution
Industry's first public demonstration of a FlexE
solution that can flexibly support 250Gb/s and 200Gb/s bandwidth
options. This demo illustrates efficient evolution of router port
bandwidth versus the optical network port bandwidth for service
providers, cloud providers, and hyper scale data centers. Showcased
within Xilinx's FlexE solution is the Xilinx Virtex UltraScale
VU190 device with FlexE IP connected to the Spirent FlexE test
system.
- B100G Muxponder Solution Scalable to 400G Optical
Transport
Demonstration illustrating the flexibility and
scalability of the emerging Beyond 100G (B100G) standards along
with the support of existing 100G standard, all made possible by
Xilinx's All Programmable UltraScale FPGAs. This demonstration
showcases Xilinx's award winning B100G Muxponder solution on a
Virtex UltraScale VU190 device including new OTUC2 (200G) ITU
pre-standard and OTUC4 (400G) ITU pre-standard.
- 16nm UltraScale+ FPGA with Integrated
RS-FEC
Another industry first, this demonstration
showcases the Xilinx 16nm Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA with integrated
100G Ethernet MAC and RS-FEC working in tandem to send data over
challenging electrical or optical interconnects. Integration
saves logic area, simplifies implementation and reduces power
consumption on the increasingly popular 100G Ethernet interfaces or
high speed backplane applications. RS-FEC enables the use of
less expensive multi-mode fiber or copper interconnects and optical
modules by correcting errors inherent to those systems.
- 56G PAM4 Transceiver Performance
This demonstration
showcases the latest in Xilinx SERDES development with the first
public display of the Xilinx 56Gb/s PAM4 transceiver. The test chip
implements full transmit and receive data paths with pattern
generators and checkers. This demonstration shows both the
high fidelity of the transmitter via an eye diagram and the
strength of the receiver as data is run from another transmit lane,
over a backplane and into the receiver to be equalized and received
error free.
- 400G Ethernet Featuring CFP8 Optics (Ethernet Alliance Booth
#3625)
This demonstration showcases Xilinx's 400GE solution
featuring the Xilinx Virtex UltraScale VU190 device with
pre-standard 400GE MAC and PCS IP connected to a Finisar 400GE CFP8
module prototype. This demonstrates an emerging 400GE standard
along with the industry's first CFP8 optical module working at 400
Gb/s.
