HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania, Sept. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity, today announced that it will showcase its latest optical solutions and innovations at ECOC 2014 from September 22-24 in Cannes, France. The company will exhibit its new Coolbit optical engine -- the driving technology behind TE's soon-to-be-released 100G, 300G and 400G active fiber optics portfolio.
"In today's world, instant access to data can be the difference between success and failure," said Nathan Tracy, technologist and head of data communications standards at TE. "The constant influx of new communications technologies on the market is taking a toll on data networks, with greater network congestion and increased data center energy consumption. Next-generation solutions are needed that address higher data rates, decrease power consumption and support new, more efficient equipment architectures while also seamlessly integrating into the consumer's day-to-day experience. In a series of demos and displays at ECOC, we will demonstrate how TE's fiber optics solutions can have a major impact on these evolving market demands."
A full list of TE's ECOC demonstrations and displays include:
TE will participate in several live demos in the OIF booth (#525) including a CDFP 400G thermal demo, 100G copper cables demo, STRADA Whisper 100G backplane connector demo and QSFP28 100G IO demo.
TE's Jeroen Duis, manager of electro-optical engineering, will also present Data Center Interconnects, The Future of Optics: Coolbit Optical Engines on September 24 at 10:45 a.m. in the Salle Esterel room. Duis will discuss the concerns associated with data center energy consumption, the increased demand for data, and the importance of cooling at the component level.
