Bell Labs and FCI Demonstrate 25gb/S Data Transmission Over Electrical Backplane Connectors

Doubles previous transmission rates and could lead to achieving 100 Gb/s Ethernet over electrical backplanes

Lucent Technologies' Bell Labs and FCI today announced the successful demonstration of 25 Gb/s data transmission over an electrical backplane using a Bell Labs-developed new signaling architecture and FCI's AirMax VS optical connector system. This is more than twice the highest transmission rates that have been demonstrated to date over electrical backplanes and is a significant step towards achieving 100 Gb/s Ethernet (4 x 25 Gb/s) over electrical backplanes.
