Pluggable optics transformation
Coherent optical technology is utilized to transport massive capacity over long distances.
Existing transponder systems consume significant data centers space and power to generate coherent wavelengths.
Coherent pluggable optics (ZR/ZR+) can generate DWDM wavelengths directly from IP ports resulting in dramatic CAPEX, OPEX, and energy savings.
Replacing a typical 200W transponder system with 30W coherent pluggable can yield 85% reduction in transponder system power consumption.
Every Watt of energy saved inside a data center can be allocated to powering additional GPUs.
