POET Technologies Inc of Toronto, Ontario, Canada — designer and developer of the POET Optical Interposer, photonic integrated circuits (PICs) and light sources for the data-center, telecom and artificial intelligence (AI) markets — says that its transmit and receive optical engines have been selected by Mentech Technology of Shenzhen, China(which supplies datacom and telecom components, including 200-800G optical modules for data-center networking infrastructure) for use in the development of 800G pluggable transceivers. The sample purchase orders are for initial builds and engineering development.
“Our end users expect us to deliver great-performing products that allow them to reach their business goals and grow their market share. A key to our progress is having outstanding vendors who can ensure that our entire eco-system remains innovative and cutting edge,” says Mentech’s chief technology officer Dr Qian Yinbo. “Adding POET’s optical interposer platform technology helps us to expand our capabilities. The small form factor and flexibility of POET’s highly integrated optical engines allow us to smoothly transition our products to higher speeds when our customers are ready for us to do so.
“POET has worked closely with Mentech to reach this pivotal stage in our relationship, and we look forward to seeing their 800G and 1.6T modules, powered by POET optical engines, out in the marketplace,” says Dr Mo Jinyu, POET’s senior VP & general manager in Asia.
Optical module design efforts usually take 6–9 months, followed by end-customer testing of an additional 3–6 months. Mentech is expecting an early launch of these new products incorporating POET’s optical engines.
