Emcore ramps up production of 56 Gbps computing cables
The provider of compound semiconductor-based components has gone into volume production of its fibre optic cables for use in high-performance computing, ethernet router and switch applications.
Emcore Corporation has ramped up to full-scale production of its 56 Gigabits per second (Gbps) Fourteen Data Rate (FDR) active optical cables.
Gbps FDR active optical cables provide the highest aggregated level of data throughput in a compact, lightweight form factor capable of supporting the bandwidth needs of these advanced systems.
Each 56 Gbps FDR cable has four 14 Gbps lanes in each direction. These lanes support InfiniBand FDR data rates and will also run at lower data rates to support 40, 20 and 10 Gbps, as well as 40 Gigabit Ethernet Quad Small Form-factor installations.
“Emcore is the industry leader in active optical cable sales. Our 40 Gbps Quad Data Rate cables are currently deployed in two of the top five supercomputers in the world,” commented Jaime Reloj, Emcore’s Vice President of Business Development.
“By leveraging our next-generation Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSEL) and photodetectors, we will continue to advance the technology for high-performance computing applications and demonstrate the same quality, reliability, on-time delivery and competitive pricing our customers have come to expect,” concluded Reloj.
5,000 ARC-231 radio systems in the field
Raytheon has achieved a major milestone in its ARC-231 radio program, fielding the 5,000th ARC- 231 radio system.
Emcore high-performance 56 Gbps active optical cable
The 56 Gbps FDR cable is the latest in the Emcore Connects Cables line of high-speed active optical cables produced at Emcore’s contract manufacturing facility in China. Emcore says it is the first manufacturer in full-scale production of 56 Gbps FDR active optical cables.
Designed for high-performance computers, telecommunication routers, storage networks, and grid and cloud computing systems, Emcore’s 56

ARC-231 is part of the Fire Series multi-band, multi-mode radio product line. In addition to being standard in all U.S. Army Aviation aircrafts, it is also in use on several U.S. Air Force and international aircrafts.
Recently, Raytheon was selected to modernise the ARC-231 program under the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) waveform, as well as modernising the cryptographic system of the radio, which will extend the service life of the ARC-231 beyond 2030. The contract was awarded through the U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Command on behalf of the end-user, U.S. Army Aviation.
“Raytheon has a great opportunity to provide readily available, high-performance, high-quality products
