Coherent Demonstrates 1.6T Optical Transceivers Based on 200G VCSELs

SAXONBURG, Pa., April 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR), a global leader in photonics, will demonstrate a 1.6T-SR8 optical transceiver at OFC 2025. This transceiver incorporates advanced 200G vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and photodiodes produced by Coherent.

VCSEL-based transceivers have established dominance in data center environments due to their exceptional cost-effectiveness and low power consumption for short-reach connections. Additionally, surging demand from artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads continue to drive significant growth in such short-reach transceiver solutions.

“We are proactively demonstrating this 200G-per-lane multimode technology even as the standards are still being written,” stated Dr. Lee Xu, Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Datacom Business Unit at Coherent. “This initiative underscores our belief that VCSEL-based multimode links will be vital in shaping the future of data center networking.”
