OREANDA-NEWS. July 16, 2015. PMC-Sierra, Inc. (PMC®) (Nasdaq:PMCS), the semiconductor and software solutions innovator transforming networks that connect, move and store big data, today announced the company was recognized with a Fujitsu Network Communications 2015 Technology Award. This prestigious award recognizes PMC as an outstanding technology partner for delivering cutting-edge technology and exceptional technical support that enables Fujitsu to rapidly deliver competitive optical transport solutions to market.

“PMC has enjoyed more than a decade-long partnership with Fujitsu on optical transport solutions,” said

Babak Samimi, vice president, Communications Business Unit Marketing, PMC. “We are thrilled to receive this award from Fujitsu as it expands our collaboration into 100G packet optical transport for metro networks.”

PMC’s packet optical transport solution portfolio includes four generations of OTN processors for metro transport and data center interconnect (DCI) applications. DIGI-120G is the industry’s first single-chip OTN processor supporting 10G, 40G and 100G speeds for OTN transport, aggregation and switched deployments. DIGI-120G enables flexible aggregation from 1G to 100G and allows OEMs to leverage a common hardware and software investment to rapidly build out a portfolio of line cards with the lowest bill of material, lowest power and fastest time to market. DIGI-120G was recognized by the British Columbia Technology Industry Association for Excellence in Product Innovation. PMC also recently announced DIGI-G4, the industry’s densest single-chip 4x100G OTN processor with 50 percent less power per port than the previous generation. It delivers the capacity, security and flexibility required for 400G line cards in packet optical transport platforms (P-OTP), ROADM/WDM and optimized DCI platforms. DIGI-G4 received a Lightwave Innovation Award, and was a Light Reading Leading Lights Award finalist. For more information, visit www.pmcs.com/OTN.
