The rise and rise of VCSELs

Sep 3, 2018

Michele Agresti, product line manager, datacom VCSELs at II-VI, revealed that the company is also developing VCSELs for 400G transceivers and closely monitoring the trends towards multi-wavelength datacom transceivers, which combine the standard 850nm VCSELs with others emitting in the 900nm range.

Agresti is not surprised that industry reports predict growth for VCSEL technology. ‘We see a broad range of industries leveraging the cloud to drive more of a digital economy, as broadband connectivity and speed continue to increase and personal devices expand digital options for consumers,’ he explained. ‘Each of these human-to-machine interactions generates multiple machine-to-machine communications within the cloud’s infrastructure, causing the rapid growth of traffic in hyperscale data centres.’
