    Inphi’s COLORZ II is the new 400ZR QSFP-DD pluggable DCO transceiver for data center interconnects (DCIs). COLORZ II enables large cloud operators to connect metro data centers at a fraction of the capex and opex of traditional coherent transport or DCI systems.

    Judge’s comment: “This is the first 400G-ZR module to be released to the market. It will be key for DCI applications.”
