Quellan Collaborates with Gore Industries to Integrate Smart Silicon into GORE(TM) EYE-OPENER® Cable to Improve Reach, Speed, Airflow and Latency
NEW YORK, Sept. 18 /- Quellan, a leader in analog signal integrity devices, today announced its ability to transform data center cable interconnects from passive, non-active devices to intelligent "roadways" for use in today's mega data centers.
In collaboration with W. L. Gore & Associates (Gore), a world leading cable supplier, Quellan will insert ultra-small, low power analog semiconductors inside interconnects used by GORE(TM) EYE-OPENER® Cable to achieve unsurpassed improvements in reach, power consumption, latency, and airflow. This series of dramatic improvements yields lower operating expenses and capital expenditures for expanding data centers.
Quellan announced its Active Cable Q:ACTIVE(TM) Semiconductor Technology today at the High Performance on Wall Street Conference using GORE(TM) EYE- OPENER® Cable to install a new found intelligence between mega data center clusters.
"Our Data Center partners have expressed the need for increased airflow, lower power, low latency and greater cluster reach in their mega data centers," said Tony Stelliga, Chairman and CEO of Quellan, Inc. "We are delighted to deliver a solution with the industry's leading high performance cable vendor, Gore."
"The integration of Quellan's low power technology into Gore product portfolio is another example of Gore's Technology Innovation in cable development. These new intelligent cable assemblies will enable our datacenter customers to reach longer lengths, with significant cable size and weight reductions, without adding power or latency," said Kris Mitchell, Product Specialist at Gore.
