Ofidium to enter 100Gbps module market using OFDM

Briefing: High-speed optical transmission.

Part 1: The start-up

Ofidium is a 100 Gigabit start-up that refuses to follow the herd.

While the optical industry has chosen polarisation-multiplexing quadrature phase-shift keying (PM-QPSK) for 100 Gigabit-per-second (Gbps) transmission, the Australian start-up is developing a module based on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation.

 "For data rates higher than 100Gbps, it [OFDM] is the only way to go"
