CoreOptics Announces Availability of the Second Generation of 40G Small Form Factor VSR Transponder Module.NUREMBERG, Germany & SAN JOSE, Calif. -- CoreOptics Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of 10/40/100 Gb/s optical networking subsystems, today announced the availability of its 40G VSR VSR Very Short Reach (Ciena/Cisco design for high speed, 10Gbps data) VSR Variable Speed Reversible VSR Very Short Reach (optical interconnection; Sprint) VSR Volume Search Radar (Very Short Reach) Transponder module. CoreOptics VSR transponder module is fully compliant to Multi-Source Agreement (MSA (Metropolitan Service Area) An urban area with at least 50,000 people plus surrounding counties. There are 306 MSAs and 428 RSAs (rural service areas) in the U.S. MSAs and RSAs are used to allocate cellular licenses. ) specification whilst providing the most compact form-factor, lowest power dissipation for client-side network applications of any other available product in the market today. "Service providers are continuously looking for solutions that enable them to reduce the cost of their networks while enabling them to offer the same or higher degree of network performance to their end customers," said Hamid Arabzadeh, Chairman of the Board, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. for CoreOptics. "Utilizing CoreOptics own SERDES See serializer/deserializer. IC's, we have developed the second generation of the 40G VSR product that will enable the lowest cost for router, OTN switches and Optical DWDM (Dense WDM) The term given to wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) when significantly more channels were being added. Since WDM is increasingly more "dense" all the time, both terms are used synonymously. See WDM. DWDM - wavelength division multiplexing interfaces for the emerging 40G services." CoreOptics' 40G/43G VSR transponder module is designed to provide a small form-factor (SFF) and low power dissipation for client-side network applications of up to 2 km and CD tolerance of 40 ps/nm. The CoreOptics' VSR MSA transponder module uses advanced XLMD components and incorporates the company's high performance 40G SERDES chipset, making it the only true second source product option available in the market today. "Our focus is to continuously improve on the performance of our product offerings, utilizing CoreOptics' IP in integrated circuits, as well as other new and improved reliable optical components," said Hans Schiessl, VP of Research and Development at CoreOptics. "Our second generation 40G VSR product is based on our own 40G SERDES IC's, as well as generally available XLMD components that enable us to offer the highest performance and the most reliable product to our customers." CoreOptics currently offers 10 Gb/s DWDM, 40 Gb/s Single Channel Short Reach and 40/43G DWDM transponder modules. The company's product portfolio also includes 40G Serializer/De-serializer IC's, 43 Gb/s Ultra-FEC, 40G Mux/DeMux for 4x10G client signals and Interface Converter supporting SFI-5s, SFI-4, XFI to enable building of next generation Open Tolerant Networks. Key benefits of these product platforms include reduction in first-in CAPEX, by eliminating the need for the conventional Dispersion Compensation Modules (DCMs) and Dual-Stage amplifiers. The OPEX See CAPEX. savings include simplification of network planning, installation and provisioning by enabling a complete set of plug-and-play features.
