Customers rely on Inphi’s solutions to develop and build out the Service Provider and Cloud infrastructures, and data centers of tomorrow. As data volumes ramp exponentially due to video streaming, social media, cloud-based services, and wireless infrastructure, the need for speed has never been greater. Inphi’s expertise in signal integrity results in reliable data delivery, at high speeds, over a variety of distances. We move big data – fast, throughout the globe, between data centers, and inside data centers. Inphi Corporation is a leader in high-speed data movement interconnects. To learn more about COLORZ and COLORZ II, visit. This eliminates a layer of network connectivity that was previously required and supports high capacity DWDM connectivity directly from data center switches. COLORZ II enables large cloud operators to connect metro data centers at a fraction of the cost of traditional coherent transport systems and allows switch and router companies to offer the same density for both coherent DWDM and client optics in the same chassis. Utilizing advanced Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM4) signaling, COLORZ delivers up to 4Tb/s of bandwidth over a single fiber and allows multiple data centers located up to 80km of each other to be connected and act like a single data center.ĬOLORZ II is the industry's first 400ZR QSFP-DD pluggable coherent transceiver for cloud DCIs to major cloud operators and OEMs.

“COLORZ products continue to open new possibilities for DCI total cost of ownership reductions, while providing a seamless upgrade path to 400G.”ĬOLORZ is the industry’s first Silicon Photonics 100G PAM4 platform solution for 80km DWDM Data Center Interconnects (DCIs) in QSFP28 form factor. Director, Marketing, Optical Interconnect at Inphi Corporation. “As data center network traffic continues to grow exponentially, it is critical for infrastructure suppliers to continue providing innovative scalable solutions,” said Tomas Maj, Sr. Leveraging existing 100GHz optical line systems, COLORZ II increases fiber capacity from 4Tb/s to 16Tb/s while further lowering power and cost per bit. Verizon Media is advancing the disaggregation of optics, switching, and optical line systems in preparation for an enormous surge in data driven by cloud, HD video and 5G applications.īoth generations of Inphi’s COLORZ optics enable data center connectivity directly from any switch or router port, allowing for the same density as client optics, while accelerating the paradigm shift to IPoDWDM. To build a better content delivery network, which brings rich high-quality media to millions of users, Verizon Media needs to connect super PoPs with low latency and high capacity DWDM interconnects. This groundbreaking demonstration consisted of adding a 400ZR from an Arista 400G switch into a 100GHz DWDM channel without affecting any of the existing 100GbE waves. 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Inphi Corporation (NYSE: IPHI), a leader in high-speed data movement interconnects, and Verizon Media have successfully validated a seamless upgrade from 100GbE QSFP28 optics, using Inphi’s COLORZ®, to 400GbE QSFP-DD over the same production Open Line System, using Inphi’s COLORZ® II.
