San Diego, March 4, 2019 - Elenion Technologies (“Elenion”), a leading designer and provider of silicon photonics-based System-on-Chip solutions, today announced its next- generation Coherent Silicon Transmitter and Receiver CSTAR optical BGA platform. With the CSTAR platform, Elenion enables multiple solutions for transmission up to 600G on a single wavelength, as well as new small form factors for compact pluggable modules such as OIF 400G ZR QSFP-DD.
WHAT? Isn't Siraj on the BOD of this scam company...
The 200-Gbps version, the CSTAR-200, is sampling to customers. “We are excited to be partnering with Elenion on our award-winning CFP2-DCO. Elenion’s CSTAR platform allows us to offer differentiated coherent solutions to our customers,” said Siraj ElAhmadi, president and general manager of Menara Networks
“From the beginning at Elenion, we’ve built our silicon photonic chips in a production CMOS fab, which enables us to build complex optical devices,” said Michael Hochberg, CTO, Elenion. “Having leveraged on-chip complexity to eliminate all of the isolators, lenses, and other free space optics from our package, Elenion is taking these chips and having them assembled in a production electronics-attach environment, reusing the infrastructure investment from the ASIC industry. We believe that this is a milestone for the silicon photonics industry, and represents an inflection point with regard to the cost of packaging for silicon photonics and integrated photonic components in general.”
