Key features include high-quality femtosecond pulse delivery through standard FC/PC connectors, high contrast power control, and dynamic group delay dispersion tuning. Available as an accessory, it offers a cost-effective upgrade path for existing Axon 920 TPC users.

Coherent Corp (NYSE: COHR) has announced it will host an Analyst and Investor Day on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. EDT. The event will take place at the New York Stock Exchange.

The program will include presentations and a Q&A session featuring the company's executive leadership team, including CEO Jim Anderson and CFO Sherri Luther. Participants can attend either in person or via live webcast through Coherent's Investor Relations website.

An archived version of the webcast will be made available later the same day. The company emphasizes that advance registration is mandatory for both virtual and in-person attendance.

Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) has announced plans to demonstrate its groundbreaking 1.6T-SR8 optical transceiver at OFC 2025, featuring advanced 200G vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and photodiodes. The demonstration will take place at booth #1519 during the event in San Francisco from April 1-3, 2025.

The company's VCSEL-based transceivers have become the preferred choice in data centers due to their cost-effectiveness and low power consumption for short-reach connections. The technology is experiencing significant growth driven by increasing demands from artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads.

Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) announced it will demonstrate its silicon photonics-based 1.6T-DR8 transceiver module at OFC 2025, featuring integration with Marvell's Ara 3nm optical digital signal processor (DSP). The demonstration showcases 200 Gbps electrical and optical interfaces.

The new transceiver, utilizing Marvell's 3nm DSP technology, aims to reduce power dissipation by over 20% compared to current 5nm DSPs in datacom transceivers. This improvement in energy efficiency is designed to lower operational costs and enable new AI server and networking architectures within data center power constraints.

The live demonstration will be available at Coherent's booth #1519 during OFC 2025 in San Francisco, April 1-3.

Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) has announced its participation at OFC 2025, scheduled for April 1-3 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. The company will showcase several groundbreaking products including:

- New suite of 400G, 800G, and 1.6T pluggable optical transceivers optimized for data centers
- 2x400G-FR4 Lite Silicon Photonics Transceiver for AI-driven data centers
- Industry's first 400G D-EML for 1.6T and 3.2T connectivity
- High-Dynamic Range QSFP OTDR with 30 dB range for spans up to 150 km

The company will demonstrate advanced technologies including silicon photonics-based 1.6T transceivers, multi-rail technology for optical transport, and the WaveAnalyzer 1500B. Coherent's leadership team will participate in various panels and workshops focusing on industry trends, photonic-enabled modules, and AI interconnects.

Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) has unveiled a revolutionary multi-rail optical transport solution that combines high-efficiency pump lasers with resource pooling to increase line system capacity while reducing size and power consumption. The technology will be showcased at OFC 2025.

The demonstration features two independent rails carrying C-Band transmission signals in a single 1RU module, achieving double the density compared to current benchmarks. The solution includes dual-chip high-power uncooled pumps, multi-port optical channel monitoring, and multi-rail dynamic gain equalization technology.

The technology is designed to scale up to provide an eightfold increase in capacity while consuming significantly less space and power compared to traditional single-rail solutions. General product availability is expected in the first half of 2026.

Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) has announced the general availability of the industry's first 100G ZR QSFP28-DCO with 0dBm optical output power, designed for metro and regional ROADM-based line systems. This high-power coherent transceiver features:

- Compact QSFP28 form factor with reduced power dissipation and network footprint
- Eliminates need for costly muxponders and transponders
- Optional Tunable Optical Filter for colorless ROADM configurations
- Built with InP photonic integrated circuits and in-house digital signal processor

The product targets IP-over-DWDM deployments, enabling network operators to upgrade metro DWDM networks from 10G to 100G while addressing capacity bottlenecks for bandwidth-intensive services like mobile video, autonomous cars, and AI inference.

Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR) has announced the general availability of its 800G ZR/ZR+ QSFP-DD transceiver, designed for high-speed optical networking applications. The new module supports transmission spanning over 500 km in ZR mode and beyond 1000 km in ZR+ modes, with capabilities extending to 2000 km at lower data rates.

The transceiver features proprietary Indium Phosphide chip technology, delivering transmitter optical output power of -7dBm for OIF 800ZR and 0dBm for ROADM-based systems. Unlike silicon photonics solutions, it operates without additional EDFAs or tunable optical filters, reducing complexity and costs.

The product enables IP-over-DWDM deployments in routers and Ethernet switches, eliminating standalone transport equipment and reducing operational costs. According to Cignal AI, over 70% of coherent bandwidth deployed in 2024 was in pluggables, with growth expected due to AI-driven data center interconnect demands.
