Marvell sampling 3nm optical DSPs

Marvell has begun sampling its 3nm 1.6T optical DSP platform portfolio – Ara X, Ara T, Petra and Aquila M.

They increase  performance per watt by optimizing separately for each high-volume use case and introducing new capabilities, including:

  • Ara T, the first 8x200G transmit-retimed optics (TRO) DSP, delivers improved power efficiency and reduced total cost of ownership in network deployments.
  • Ara X, the first 1.6T DSP with advanced link reliability capabilities, enables customers to achieve higher resilience for optical networks.
  • Petra, the first 3nm 8x100G to 4x200G gearbox, enables high power efficiency and unlocks new, more flexible infrastructure designs.
  • Aquila M, the first O-band-optimized, coherent-lite optical DSP with integrated media access control security (MACsec), adds critical built-in security to next-generation optical links.

Marvell sampling 3nm optical DSPsMarvell is offering a full connectivity stack including DSPs, advanced SerDes, switching, interconnects, drivers and TIAs, and theRELIANT interconnect telemetry platform.

The Marvell portfolio spans the full data center connectivity stack, including DSPs, SerDes, switching, interconnects, drivers and TIAs to support all systems,, links and nodes across the network.



The new offerings announced today extend the company’s existing 1.6T portfolio, which includes Marvell Ara, Alaska and Nova DSPs, its Ethernet PHY platform, the Silicon Photonics Light Engine and the LPO TIA and laser driver chipset.

Marvell also provides supporting system-level technologies such as the Marvell RELIANT interconnect telemetry platform, which helps customers reduce operational complexity and improve network reliability and performance.
