    Menara Networks, an IPG Photonics Company, 200G CFP2-DCO

    Feb. 20, 2019
    Based on advanced 16-nm CMOS technology, Menara’s Hytham CFP2-DCO offers all the necessary digital signal processing for polarization-multiplexed QPSK for 100-Gbps and 16QAM for 200-Gbps modulation formats. Advanced CD and PMD compensation engines enable error-free transmission for up to 4,000 km of uncompensated G.652 SMF. A flexible choice of inner and outer FEC codes enables on-touch configuration for data center interconnect, metro, and long-haul applications at optimized power consumption levels.
