Cisco (Acacia)
Cisco sells 800G ZR and ZR+ coherent pluggables in QSFP-DD and OSFP, built by its Acacia unit on the Delphi DSP, for data center interconnect from 120 km to beyond 1,000 km. Cisco was 18.2% of Fabrinet's fiscal 2025 revenue.
Facts
Source per value- Role Where the company sits in the optics supply chain: pluggable module maker, DSP and chip supplier, laser and component maker, network OEM that sells its own optics, contract manufacturer, optical I/O and co-packaged optics developer, or active electrical cable maker.
- Network OEM 1
- Top speed Gb/s Highest module or chip application rate documented in the cited sources, in Gb/s (1600 = 1.6T). A historical catalog or announcement is not proof of today’s maximum or volume shipments.
- 800 1
- Speeds Data-center speed grades in the current portfolio, as the company lists them.
- 400G, 800G coherent; 1.6T PAM4 DSP and optical engines (components) 2
- 1.6T status Evidence for the 1.6T module or chip: volume/revenue shipping, customer sampling, or public demo/announcement. Blank means no dated status established; inspect the source date.
- Not published
- Form factors Pluggable form factors offered (QSFP28, QSFP56, QSFP112, QSFP-DD, OSFP, OSFP-XD and so on), or the package type for chips and engines.
- QSFP-DD, OSFP 1
- LPO / LRO Offers linear pluggable optics (LPO) or linear receive optics (LRO), or the drivers, TIAs or DSPs built for them.
- Not published
