DCI Modules

Marvell offers a portfolio of DCI modules designed to efficiently transmit data over regional fiber networks. Using Marvell coherent DSP technology and the field-proven Marvell silicon photonics platform, switch-pluggable COLORZ™ modules make high-speed connectivity between cloud data centers as efficient and cost-effective as inside-data center connectivity.

COLORZ 800 Module

The COLORZ 800 module is the industry’s first ZR/ZR+ pluggable coherent transceiver for data center interconnect applications. Powered by Marvell Orion coherent DSP and Marvell silicon photonics platform, the COLORZ 800 module enables large cloud operators to connect metro data centers up to 1000km apart at 800 Gbps and regional data centers up to 2000km apart at up to 600 Gbps. Available for both C+L Band in QSFP-DD or OSFP, COLORZ 800 lowers the capital cost of DCI substantially compared to traditional systems.

  • Industry’s first 800 Gbps ZR/ZR+ module
  • QSFP-DD and OSFP form factor
  • Enables 800Gbps for metro DCI up to >1000km
  • Multi-rate: 800G/600G/400G
  • Multi-reach: 120km to >2000km
  • C+L Band enables 64Tbps per fiber
  • Advanced management capabilities via C-CMIS
  • Built on Orion 800 Gbps coherent DSP and Marvell field-proven silicon photonics platform

COLORZ 400 Module

The COLORZ 400 module is the industry’s first 400ZR/ZR+ QSFP-DD pluggable coherent transceiver for DCIs to major cloud operators and OEMs. The module enables large cloud operators to connect metro data centers at a fraction of the cost of traditional coherent transport systems and allows switch and router companies to offer the same density for both coherent DWDM and client optics in the same chassis.

  • Compatible with the QSFP-DD MSA
  • Compliant with the OIF 400ZR Implementation Agreement
  • Compatible with Common Management Interface Specification (CMIS) Rev. 4.1 and OIF Coherent CMIS
  • 400 Gbps with single optical carrier (60 Gbaud, 16QAM)
  • Transmission of 400GbE signals per wavelength

COLORZ Module

The COLORZ module links together regional data centers located within the same metropolitan region so they can function efficiently as if they were a single mega-data center. This virtual mega-data center enables operators to cost effectively and incrementally build smaller data centers and subsequently link them together as if they were a single 120MW-class data center. The product’s low latency, high density and low power characteristics make compelling “mega center” architecture possible and cost effective.

  • QSFP28 form factor supporting 100G Ethernet per SFF-8665
  • 80 km reach over duplex single mode fiber
  • Enables 4 Tb/s capacity over a single fiber
  • Leading port isolation for deterministic high-performance
  • PAM4 modulation format on 100G ITU DWDM wavelength grid compatible (2 wavelength super channel)
