It holds more than 2,000 patents. today announced it will show a breakthrough demonstration of how parallel optics technology can address 100 Gigabits per second (Gb/s) interconnections. The company is a leading supplier of innovative semiconductor solutions for advanced communications, industrial and commercial applications. "Parallel optics provides an ideal platform for making 100 Gigabit Ethernet An Ethernet standard that transmits at 1 Gbps. Used mostly to connect high-end workstations and servers as well as for network backbones, Gigabit Ethernet transmits full duplex from point to point using switches and half duplex in a shared environment (CSMA/CD) using a hub. commercially viable," commented David Dolfi, an Avago research fellow and pioneer in parallel optics technology. "It is a very scalable technology, and the best currently available in terms of cost and for reliably handling extremely high data rates." In addition to its 100 Gb/s technology demonstration, Avago will showcase 8 Gb/s and 10 Gb/s samples for the emerging SFP+ form factor. At the heart of Avago's 10 Gigabit Ethernet demonstrations is the company's VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) Pronounced "vixel." A type of laser diode that emits light from its surface rather than its edge. A VCSEL's circular beam is easy to couple with a fiber, and due to its surface-emission architecture, can be tested technology. Avago's demonstrations will take place at the OFC/NFOEC conference held at the Anaheim Convention Center Anaheim Convention Center is a major convention center in Anaheim, California. It is located across from the Disneyland Resort on Katella Avenue. Much of the Anaheim Convention Center has been renovated in recent years with state-of-the-art facilities. from March 27-29, Hall B, booth # 2741.
