AI and cloud growth isn’t only filling data centers — it’s flooding the links between them. A growing, often dominant share of traffic now rides the metro and long-haul networks that connect one facility to another, and that scale calls for coherent optics. Newlink develops technology platforms spanning multiple generations of coherent transceivers for metro and long-haul TDM and WDM networks, so operators can carry more capacity over existing fiber while keeping cost and power per bit in check.
Coherent detection
DP-QAM coherent optics pack far more capacity onto each fiber than direct-detect, extending reach without laying new cable.
Data center interconnect
400ZR and ZR+ pluggables link facilities across the campus and the metro straight from the router port.
Metro to long-haul
One platform that scales from short DCI hops to amplified long-haul spans across the transport network.
More capacity per fiber
WDM-ready optics multiply the data each deployed strand can carry, protecting existing fiber investments.
Product Family
Coherent pluggable transceivers for DCI, metro and long-haul TDM and WDM networks.
Router-pluggable coherent optics for data center interconnect, bringing 400G ZR and ZR+ reach to the metro straight from the switch or router port.
A digital-coherent CFP2 module for metro and long-haul TDM and WDM links, with the tunable optics and reach to span amplified transport networks.
