TERIPHIC sees path to terabit datacom applications

12 Feb 2019

EU project intends to develop terabit optical transceivers through photonic integration.

Terabit modules

A project funded under the EU Horizon 2020 research program that aims to go beyond current 400G standards in optical networks and develop modules capable of both 800 Gb/s and 1.6 Tb/s has been launched, following a kick-off meeting in Berlin.

TERIPHIC – Moving on to Terabit transceiver modules, and how to assemble them

As part of its on-going and intensive involvement in international, publicly funded R&D projects, ficonTEC R&D announces its involvement in TERIPHIC, an EU H2020 project starting January 2019 and due to run for 36 months. Having kicked-off in January in Berlin, the goal is to go beyond current 400G transceiver module standards and push development to Terabit transceiver modules having at least 2km reach.
