Intel Launches a 10 Gbps Tunable Transceiver

Intel
introduced a 10 Gbps telecommunications-grade optical
transceiver capable of being tuned across the entire C
band. The new 10-Gbps Intel TXN13600 Tunable Optical
Transceiver uses thermal tuning and wavelength-locking
technology. Intel said the unique design of its
transceiver results in low power dissipation of 8 Watts
typical. It also integrates a variety of advanced
features, such as dynamic control of the receiver decision
threshold and unique SBS suppression that enables
optimization of link performance without affecting other
transmitter characteristics. The transceiver will be
available in production quantities in the second half of
2004 and is priced at $7,000.
