SPECTRA7 AND ACES ANNOUNCE SUCCESSFUL DEMONSTRATION OF INDUSTRY LEADING PERFORMANCE FOR 800G ACTIVE COPPER INTERCONNECTS

Spectra7 Microsystems Inc. and Aces Electronics Co. Ltd., a leading Taiwan-based connector and cable supplier, have successfully demonstrated best-in-class performance of 800-gigabit active copper cables (ACCs) at this year's annual DesignCon conference exhibition held last week in Santa Clara, Calif.

In the demonstration, ACES 800Gbps OSFP ACCs with Spectra7's embedded GC1122 chips successfully interoperated with test equipment from several vendors to produce very robust low pre-FEC bit error rates (BERs) significantly below standard required BER.

"We are extremely proud to be working with ACES to broaden access to our 800G ACC solutions using Spectra7's innovative GaugeChanger(TM) integrated chips," said Spectra7 CEO Raouf Halim. "We are delighted to have showcased our technology with them at DesignCon 2024. "

Spectra7's analog based GaugeChanger(TM) GC1122 chips are used in ACCs and offer significant cost, size, latency and energy consumption value versus competing Active Electrical Cables (AECs) and Active Optical Cables (AOCs) that use Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technologies.
