Steve, I read the article. Very interesting. One takeaway is that the end users are looking for 4x100-gigabit modulators to get to 400. So if that's the case maybe the 50g modulator LWLG revealed is not enough (8x50). Maybe LWLG has to scale up further to 100g. But at that point it would be game over for all others.

“My point to them was that we need a CWDM4 version of 400 gigabits; the LAN-WDM eight-wavelength is a non-starter for all of us,” says Booth. “If you talk to any of the big end users, they will tell you it is a non-starter. They are waiting for the FR4.”

Everyone wants 400 gigabit - 4x100-gigabit, that is what they are looking for,” says Rajgarhia.

If companies adopt other solutions it is purely a time-to-market consideration. “If they are going for intermediate solutions, as soon as there is 400 gigabits based on 100-gigabit serial, there is no need for them, whether it is 200-gigabit or 8x50-gigabit modules,” says Rajgarhia.
