Comment re DC CompetitorIn regards to:
https://www.aquantia.com/technology/100g-page/
I note their tech is limited to 3 m and appears to offer no benefit in regards to smaller cable diameter, hence no reduced heat production or electricity consumption, or cable flexibility. The video speaks to 100 GB 'per lane', not sure how that converts to compare to the S7 specs. I wonder if s7 tech can be layered with multiple chips in one connector to produce data rates like that below or greater?
From the link above:
- 100G over 3m Direct Attach Cable SFP
- 400G over 3m Direct Attach Cable QSFP
- 800G over 3m Direct Attach Cable OSFP
Certainly some overlap with the market SEV is targeting for data centers but appears to be no overlap with the AR/VR/MR headsets.
