• Tunable
• Based on simpler PDs, reach
limited by CD & PMD
• 25Gb/s ODB per lambda
• 4 lambda per 100G used

• Microsoft teaming with Inphi for worlds first 100G QSFP28 for metro DCI.
• Based on simpler PDs, reach limited by CD & PMD
• 50Gb/s PAM per lambda
• 2 lambda per 100G used
• DWDM 100Ghz ITU-T grid
• Connect data centers nearly 80km apart
• No need of active transponding in between
• Requires FEC on host board

Future Outlook Metro DCI
• Metro access market is only going to
grow
• Not just about datacenter interconnect-
enterprise, IXs, financial institutes
• Direct Detect deployments supersede
coherent after 2018
• Coherent opted when spectral
efficiency required, otherwise DWDM
Direct Detect proves to be the optimal

DCAC
• No conversion, transport transceivers are
plugged straight into terminal equipment
• Less active elements => higher reliability,
less latency
• Transceivers are managed by terminal
equipment (Switch, DSLAM, etc.)
PASSIVE
1310
• Conversion from client (“grey transceivers”)
to line (“colored transceivers”) signals by
transponder cards
• Since being “active” a chassis with power
and management (SNMP) is needed

    Excellence in ConnectivitySolutions Future Outlook Metro DCI • Metro access market is only going to grow • Not just about datacenter interconnect- enterprise, IXs, financial institutes • Direct Detect deployments supersede coherent after 2018 • Coherent opted when spectral efficiency required, otherwise DWDM Direct Detect proves to be the optimal solution Source: IHS Infonetics, April 2015 12-13 April 2016 | Data Center World | London 22 100G and Beyond DC Interconnect: Present and Future

    Excellence in ConnectivitySolutions 12-13 April 2016 | Data Center World | London Passive 100G Transport SNMP 1310 DCAC • No conversion, transport transceivers are plugged straight into terminal equipment • Less active elements => higher reliability, less latency • Transceivers are managed by terminal equipment (Switch, DSLAM, etc.) PASSIVE 1310 • Conversion from client (“grey transceivers”) to line (“colored transceivers”) signals by transponder cards • Since being “active” a chassis with power and management (SNMP) is needed • Flexible but complex ACTIVE 100G and Beyond DC Interconnect: Present and Future 25
