Digital Coherent Optics

---

Axiom Connectivity’s 100Gb/200Gb DCO (digital coherent optics) CFP/CFP2 transceivers deliver 100Gb/200Gb data rates through a single fiber pair in extra long-haul networks. Whereas traditional transceivers use modulation of signal intensity to transfer data, DCO transceivers utilize amplitude and phase modulation as well as wave polarization to increase the bits per symbol, offering greater bandwidth. This enables DCO transceivers to deliver the 100Gb/200Gb data rates, without the use of optical amplification technology.

DCO transceivers incorporate an assortment of optical integration technologies for coherent detection of the data, as the name “coherent optics” suggests, and a DSP (digital signal processor) is used to enhance the signal for long-haul distance reaches with advanced QPSK and 16QAM modulation. This DSP is integrated onto the actual DCO transceiver device. With a compact-sized form factor, DCO transceivers are true plug-and-play transceivers, perfect for any modern 100Gb/200Gb network. Elevate your networks with the simplicity of Axiom Connectivity’s 100Gb/200Gb digital coherent optical transceivers.
