Imagine if your internet signal was like a whisper that usually fades away after a short distance. This technology acts like a super-powered hearing aid for fiber optic cables, picking up signals 10 times better than before. It allows data to travel much further without needing expensive signal boosters along the way.
Current internet access networks are too energy-intensive and expensive to scale. They require too many central offices because signal strength drops off quickly over distance.
A Quasi Coherent Receiver Optical Sub-Assembly (ROSA) and a DWDM SFP28 transceiver capable of a 40 km reach.
If you are a 5G provider dealing with short signal reach in fronthaul architectures — this project developed a Quasi Coherent ROSA that increases infrastructure reach from 10 km up to 20 km.
If you are an ISP dealing with the high cost of central offices — this project developed a receiver that can reduce the need for these energy-consuming offices by up to 90%.
If you are a hardware maker dealing with high production costs for complex optics — this project developed a Photonic Integrated Circuit fabrication method to produce complex structures at a low cost.
It significantly reduces capital and operational expenses by reducing the need for costly and high energy-consuming central offices by up to 90%.
Yes, the company uses a Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) fabrication method designed to produce complex optical structures at a low cost.
The technology is based on proprietary and patented Quasi Coherent technology, and the company's strategy includes both direct sales and licensing.
The technology can be seamlessly integrated into any existing transceiver currently on the market.
Based on available project data, the technology could reduce Access Network energy consumption by 50%, leading to a 30% reduction in the overall Internet industry's energy use.
The project is led by a single SME, Bifrost Communications APS from Denmark. With a 100% industry ratio and no university or research partners, the project is heavily focused on commercialization and direct product development rather than basic research.
