Orlando: OFS, a leaders in fiber optic solutions, Monday January 29, 2024, announced new optical fiber and cable solutions for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High Performance Computing (HPC) Networks.
The company’s newly launched Dual-Band OM4+ Multimode Optical Fiber will complement its existing OM4 and OM5 products that lead the industry in bandwidth, attenuation and geometry performance.
“LaserWave Dual-Band OM4+ is a cost-effective premium fiber optimized for bidirectional (BiDi) applications to support the next generation of high density and low power multimode links”, OFSC said while showcasing the new product at BICSI Winter 2024 in Orlando.
“It offers OM5-equivalent performance at the 850 nm and 910 nm wavelengths used for bidirectional transmission to maintain 100 m reach for Terabit BiDi Ethernet applications; 800G-SR4.2 and 1.6T-SR8.2”, it said.
“It is fully backward compatible with OM4 standards and applications”, it added.
Further improvements to LaserWave multimode fibers have allowed OFS to be the first to market with multimode Rollable Ribbon cable technologies.
Colored optical fibers are partially bonded into a flexible ribbon that is rolled within ultra-compact cables and then easily breaks-out into individual fibers or pairs for termination.
“LaserWave R-Pack and AccuRiser Rollable Ribbon Cables are available now as an improved solution vs. active optical cables (AOCs) and flat ribbon cables to accommodate the density requirements of AI driven applications”, OFS said.
"The accelerating growth of AI clusters is leading to increased demand for reliable, low-power multimode links. OFS LaserWave Multimode Rollable Ribbon Cables offer unsurpassed optical quality, reduced footprint, and easier termination to support rapid deployment of new data center infrastructure," said David Knight, Product Line Manager – Multimode and Hollow-core Solutions for OFS.
Headquartered in Norcross (near Atlanta) Georgia, U.S.A., OFS is a global provider with facilities in several countries worldwide. OFS is part of Furukawa Electric Group, a multi-billion-dollar leader in optical communications.
Furukawa Solutions brand is creating future-ready and sustainable solutions for customers in such areas as telecommunications, medicine, industrial networking, sensing, aerospace, defense, and energy. OFS is guiding light for a better life through the limitless possibilities of fiber optics.
