on

TORONTO, Jan. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — POET Technologies Inc. (“POET” or the “Company”) (TSX Venture: PTK; NASDAQ: POET), the designer and developer of the POET Optical Interposer™ and Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) for the data center, telecommunication and artificial intelligence markets, today announced that it has developed multi-engine 100G CWDM4 and 100G LR4 chip-on-board solutions for its lead customer, ADVA Optical Networking SE. ADVA will use POET’s multi-engine transmit and receive chips in an innovative pluggable solution that packs the functionality of four independent 100Gbit/s interfaces into a single QSFP-DD housing.

“ADVA’s MicroMux™ Quattro brings the industry’s smallest aggregation technology all the way to the network core. Engineered as a standard-compliant plug in a QSFP-DD form factor, it fits into a 400Gbit/s socket, enabling it to meet legacy needs. This innovative pluggable solution packs the functionality of four independent 100Gbit/s interfaces or two independent 200Gbit/s interfaces into a single QSFP-DD housing,” said Ross Saunders, GM of Optical Engines, ADVA. “POET’s unique design of its optical engines with hybrid integration of optical chips and monolithically integrated MUX and DMUX enables us to deliver industry-leading products in a small form factor that is scalable to high volume production as well as to higher data rates, such as 1.6Tbit/s and 3.2Tbit/s, thereby enabling much higher bandwidth in a pluggable form factor.”

“We are excited to work with ADVA and to enable a high-density platform with a large market potential,” said Vivek Rajgarhia, President & GM of POET. “POET’s Optical Interposer platform provides a high level of photonic integration to provide unique solutions in miniature form factors. We believe that our wafer-scale integration platform provides ADVA with compelling solutions that are well aligned with their current and future products.”

POET’s multi-engine chips incorporate multiple instances of industry standard 100GBASE-CWDM4, for 2km applications, and 100GBASE-LR4, for 10km applications, transmit and receive functionalities on a single optical engine. The Company’s 100GBASE-LR4 optical engines are the industry’s first implementation of chip-on-board solutions for the 100G LR4 market. The hybrid integration of lasers and photodiodes, monolithic integration of optical MUX and DMUX and the passive alignment of components on POET’s Optical Interposer platform provides a unique and differentiated solution to enable high-density network connectivity.

POET has successfully demonstrated 10km operation of 100G LR4 optical engines in its Shenzhen Lab and plans to ship beta samples to ADVA in Q1 2023 with production targeted in the second half of 2023.

According to LightCounting’s April 2022 report, the market opportunity for 100G CWDM4 and LR4 pluggable transceivers will continue to remain strong at an average size of $700 million annually from 2023 to 2027.

An FAQ containing more information on the Company’s collaboration with ADVA will appear later today on the POET Blog (https://poet-technologies.com/blog.html).

ABU DHABI, UAE, May 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — An an outcome of the Health Leaders Forum (HLF) organised during Abu Dhabi Global Healthcare Week (ADGHW), the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi (DoH), the regulator of the healthcare sector in the Emirate, unveiled a Declaration of Principles on Bioconvergence, to transform healthcare, improve human health and well-being. As a first-of-its-kind initiative, the Declaration outlines global principles covering guidance on transparency, accountability, and bias mitigation, as well as research ethics and ethical decision-making in the field of Bioconvergence.

Bioconvergence has been recognised as the latest technological trend of the 21st century for the healthcare sector. It is a transdisciplinary field that merges engineering and life sciences, and is set to revolutionise the health-tech industry. Bioconvergence fuses life sciences with a vast number of technologies from fields such as mathematics, engineering, and physical and computational sciences.
The Declaration of Principles will witness leading local and global entities collaborate with DoH including Amazon, Microsoft, UAE University (UAEU), Mohammad Bin Zayed University for AI (MBZUAI), Core 42 and Masdar City. Segmented into six strategic pillars, the principles aim to advance Bioconvergence research and development, encourage investment in the field to address urgent healthcare challenges, establish international cooperation frameworks, prioritise research areas in public health and personalised medicine, and promote the adoption of advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and nanomedicine.
Dr. Asma Ibrahim Al Mannaei, the Executive Director of the Research and Innovation Centre at the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi (DoH): “In the intricacies of Bioconvergence, establishing fundamental principles is not merely a choice, but a collective responsibility. These principles serve as a beacon of transparency, guardians of accountability and shields against any form of bias. With the ever-evolving intersection of health and technology, integrity and diligence remain guiding threads for the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi. Reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s position as a leading destination for innovation in healthcare, the unique Declaration serves as a testament to the Department’s continued efforts to build a healthier world and shape the future of healthcare for generations to come.”
Moreover, upholding ethical standards and responsible practices involve raising awareness on the benefits and risks of Bioconvergence technologies, establishing ethical guidelines, and ensuring accessibility and affordability for all. Investment in education and workforce development entails supporting skill development, integrating Bioconvergence into relevant curricula, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and promoting diversity in the field.
Additionally, fostering collaboration and the exchange of knowledge among stakeholders, advocating for supportive policies and regulations, and engaging the community through awareness campaigns and transparent communication are crucial steps in advancing Bioconvergence research and innovation while maintaining community’s trust and support. These key pillars will support accelerating the future of healthcare and life sciences by making quality health a global priority.
