CLARIPHY TO DEMONSTRATE NEXT GENERATION
OPTICAL TECHNOLOGIES AT ECOC 2007
ClariPhy to showcase its MLSD-Based
EDC for Next
Generation Telecommunication
Applications
IRVINE, Calif., September 17, 2007 – ClariPhy Communications, Inc., a
fabless semiconductor company specializing in high speed communications ICs,
today announced that it will demonstrate its all-digital CMOS Maximum
Likelihood Sequence Detection (MLSD) Electronic Dispersion Compensation (EDC) at
ECOC 2007,
MLSD is the optimal receiver architecture
for dispersive fibers. Because of the complexities of IC design at 10 Gbit/s, dispersion
compensation has historically been implemented by adding dispersion
compensating fiber (DCF) to the primary fiber. DCFs
suffer from the fundamental limitations of providing a fixed amount of dispersion
compensation and introducing significant loss that must be overcome with
expensive optical amplifiers. In
contrast, ClariPhy’s MLSD-based EDC offers dynamic dispersion compensation
without introducing loss, allowing for real time optical network optimization
and future proofing as networks migrate to reconfigurable DWDM technologies.
“We are excited to showcase our
products in conjunction with Opnext at ECOC 2007,” said Dr.
“We are pleased
to collaborate with ClariPhy in this demonstration,” said Edward Cornejo, vice
president of product marketing at Opnext.
“The ClariPhy MLSD EDC is an integral part of our XFP demonstration at
ECOC 2007.”
