When it comes to network connection speed, choosing the right type of network port is very important. In modern networks, Gigabit network ports, 2.5G ports, and 5G ports are common options. This article will detail these network port types and how to choose the one that suits your needs. Gigabit Ethernet Gigabit port, also known …
For CPO or Optical IO application scenarios, it is usually the first through the advanced package way to the optical chip and the electrical chip together, and then finally the optical fiber fixed to the optical chip. This will bring several problems. First of all, in the photoelectric chip before the completion of the package, …
How much 800G DSP share does Marvell own? In the past, for PAM4 DSPS, that is, single-channel from 50G, 56G all the way up to 100G, Marvell’s market share was at least 60-70%. If calculated by shipments, the market share can reach 80%. 800G was first demanded only by Google because Google had already planned …
Layer 3 switch, very powerful, is an upgraded product of layer 2 switch. It has all the functions of the switch, and some of the functions of the router. It is a device to achieve high-speed data forwarding in the local area network. Next, let’s take a closer look at the next layer 3 switch. …
In the market, there are different versions of the ratio of optical transceivers to the number of GPUs, and the figures of various versions are not consistent mainly because the amount of optical modules required under different networking architectures is not the same. The actual number of optical modules used mainly depends on the following …
