Summary
Digital signal processors (DSP) devices are driving new performance levels, whether supporting coherent or PAM4 transmission. This webinar will examine the current options, recent advances, and roadmap to the next generation.
Research from industry watchers Light Counting and Dell’Oro have noted that next-gen DSPs are on the rise. LightCounting noted demand for 400/800GbE connectivity inside mega data centers and 400/800G DWDM optics on the outside boosted sales of PAM4 and coherent DSP chips in 2019-2023, and this market segment will continue to grow. Likewise, Dell’Oro noted that coherent optical DSPs will influence the growth of the optical DWDM market, reaching $18 billion in revenue by 2028.
During this webinar, we’ll discuss various growth drivers, opportunities and challenges for next-generation DSPs:
- Coherent optical DSPs
- Getting to 800G and 1.6 Tbps
- Standards Efforts
- Interoperability
- Addressing latency issues
- Evolving power rates
- And more
