Before OFC, Acacia highlighted progress towards bringing the AC1200 optical module and Pico DSP to production with customer field trials of its components in Adva and Cisco equipment.
“Recent announced field trials of equipment based on Acacia’s AC1200 demonstrated the system’s competitive capabilities in a range of multi-haul applications,” said Scott Wilkinson, Lead Analyst, Optical Hardware of Cignal AI. “We believe that compact modular systems, including several based on the AC1200, are likely to see adoption in the market for both disaggregated and traditional networks. We look forward to seeing more of these systems live at OFC.”
