Samtec›Samtec› offers Optics

Samtec's Optics family provides mid-board optical transceiver solutions with reliable signal integrity over extended distances in chip-to-chip, board-to-board, on-board, and system-to-system connectivity. Offerings include FireFly transceivers that take data off board at up to 28 Gbps per lane with a path to 112 Gbps PAM4, in-development Halo modules targeting 56/112 Gbps PAM4 in low-profile ruggedized form factors, and passive optical MTP patch and adaptor systems.

Modules emphasize low power per channel and small footprints that sit close to the IC, with integral heat sinks or through-the-board cooling for harsh environments and wide temperature ranges. Buyers get the Optics Solutionator cable builder, an optical transceiver center of excellence, FireFly evaluation and development kits, and design resources spanning PCI Express-over-Fiber, CXL, VITA 90 VNX+, custom solutions, and immersion-cooling testing.
