EFFECT Photonics is a member of the TIP's Open Optical & Packet Transport Project Group, which works on defining open technologies, architectures, and interfaces used in optical and IP networks. The group participates in the development of different parts of the transport network architecture, including optical transponders, line systems, IP access devices, open APIs, and network simulation and planning tools.
EFFECT Photonics CCO Harald Graber explains: "The networking industry is evolving at a steady pace, while now, more than ever, broadband access for everyone is needed.
This can only be achieved through open collaboration. TIP is addressing these issues and shares so many of EFFECT Photonics' values that we are more than excited to join forces and contribute to TIP's vision. Our optical SoC technology and packaging expertise can help achieve the goals of the TIP community. Furthermore, our NarroWave technology and 5G-XHaul-optimized transceivers can support TIP's OpenRAN initiative. We are excited to see what our end customers are able to do with the products we have developed.
EFFECT Photonics' product portfolio includes the 10Gbps 40km DWDM Narrow Tunable SFP+ module, currently shipping, which features an industrial temperature range and low power consumption. It is also available with optional NarroWave functionality, offering self-tuning and remote digital diagnostics, making these devices an attractive option for network operators looking to add bandwidth without adding physical fiber, while also enabling remote monitoring and control.
