Demo to Highlight Spectra7's GC1122 and Keysight's AresONE-M 800GE Layer 1-3 Test Systems
SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- (TSXV:SEV) (OTCQB:SPVNF) Spectra7 Microsystems Inc. ("Spectra7" or the "Company"), a leading provider of high-performance analog semiconductor products for broadband connectivity markets, and Keysight, a leading provider of electronic design, test, security, and software solutions, announced they successfully achieved robust performance testing and will demonstrate their latest 800Gbps product offerings at this year's annual DesignCon Conference Exhibition in Santa Clara, California from Jan 31-Feb 1, 2024. The companies plan to demonstrate robust performance and testing of 800Gbps Active Copper Cable (ACC) products for hyperscale data center applications.
In the testing, Spectra7's ACCs successfully interoperated with the Keysight AresONE-M 800GE QSFP-DD800 Layer 1-3 Test System at 800Gbps speeds. Link training produced a very robust low bit error rate (BER) of 3.3e-9 which demonstrates a wide margin over standard required BER.
DesignCon is the premier high-speed interconnect and system design conference attended by engineers from around the world. The Spectra7 will be on exhibit in booth #1344.
"Spectra7 is integral in helping to drive the future of the data center interconnect industry, and we are proud to collaborate with Spectra7 to demonstrate next-generation high-speed solutions," said Ram Periakaruppan, VP and General Manager, Network Applications and Security Group, at Keysight. "This collaboration highlights our vision to build relationships that benefit our customers, and partners, providing them flexible solutions for their toughest challenges."
"Keysight is a technology and market leader in the Ethernet test equipment market," said Spectra7 CEO Raouf Halim. "Their validation of robust performance of our GaugeChangerTM technology in 800Gbps interconnects is a significant milestone in the coming volume deployment of our data center product line."
Spectra7's analog based GaugeChangerTM GC1122 chips are used in ACCs and offer significant cost, size, and energy consumption value versus competing Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and Active Optical Cables (AOCs) that use Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technologies.
