YOFC Unveils MaxBand® OM4 Pro/Ultra Series of Multimode Fibres
Enhancing Data Center Efficiency in the AI Era WUHAN, China, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Over the past two decades, the rapid growth in the number of Internet users and connected devices has dramatically boosted traffic to global cloud platforms and enterprise data centres. This surge has positioned data centres at the forefront of technological innovation. In recent years, the widespread adoption of AI technology has prompted data centres to evolve toward more efficient computing. As a result, data centre operators worldwide are striving to develop faster, denser, more cost-effective, and more energy-efficient infrastructures. In the field of short-haul optical communications for data centers, transmission solutions using vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) and multimode fibres (MMFs) are favored for their cost-effectiveness. For 25 Gbaud transmission, OM3 and OM4 fibres have become the dominant choice for link coverage ranging from 70 to 100 meters. However, as data centers transition to higher transmission speeds, the industry is shifting towards the use of 100G/Lane VCSEL transceivers. This shift has introduced new challenges for fibre, the medium for data transmission. Issues such as the central wavelength drift of the light source and bandwidth limitations of traditional OM4 fibre at 850nm or longer wavelengths may lead to a reduction in link transmission distance. To address these challenges, Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Joint Stock Limited Company (hereinafter referred to as "YOFC") has leveraged its deep technical expertise in MMFs to design the high-performance MaxBand® OM4 Pro/Ultra series of MMFs, specifically tailored for 100G/Lane optical transceivers. These new fibre products enhance the transmission efficiency of data centers. MaxBand® OM4 Pro: It offers an effective modal bandwidth of over 4700 MHz*km in the 850nm to 870nm wavelength range. This significantly improves the average bandwidth within this range and effectively addresses the issue of reduced transmission distance caused by central wavelength drift. MaxBand® OM4 Ultra: It provides high bandwidth at wavelengths of 850nm to 870nm and 910nm. This meets the demand for 100G/Lane single-wavelength unidirectional and bidirectional transmission over distances of up to 100 meters, significantly enhancing transmission distance for single-channel 100G and Terabit BiDi links. Figure 1: YOFC’s Optimized MMF Bandwidth for 100G/Lane Figure 2: Transmission Distances for 100G/Lane Using Different Optical Fibres YOFC's MaxBand® OM4 Pro/Ultra series of MMFs are fully compatible with existing OM4 and OM5 fibre optic standards, as well as systems based on these standards. OM4 Pro: Broadened Bandwidth, Future Ready Traditional OM4 fibre provides high bandwidth at 850nm but is limited in bandwidth for longer wavelengths with a narrow operating window. By expanding the operating window to 850~870nm, YOFC's MaxBand® OM4 Pro fibre effectively compensates for signal degradation resulting from wavelength shifts in optical modules. This ensures high-quality signal transmission, reduces connectivity costs for AI data centers, and enables a seamless upgrade for data center multimode connectivity solutions to 400G, 800G, and higher speeds. OM4 Ultra: Dual Windows, Double Performance OM4 Ultra fibre extends the operating window to 910nm, achieving dual operating windows of 850~870nm and 910nm. This innovative design supports 400Gb/s, 800Gb/s, and 1.6Tb/s single-wavelength and dual-wavelength transmission systems. Utilizing wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, it enables high-speed transmission through fewer fibres, paving the way for potential upgrades to 1.6Tb/s in data centers. OM5: All-round High Bandwidth, Pioneer in Multi-wavelength Transmission YOFC MaxBand® OM5 fibre provides comprehensive high bandwidth in the 850~950nm wavelength range. It supports BiDi or SWDM multi-wavelength transmission systems from 40Gb/s to 1.6Tb/s, offering a robust fibre foundation for future SWDM transmission solutions of 1.6Tb/s and above. Fully Upgraded and Compatible With the advancement of data center technology, YOFC's MMFs have evolved from single-window to wide-window, dual-window, and multi-window solutions, offering comprehensive fibre options to customers. These innovative fibre products not only fulfill the demand for higher-speed networks but also ensure backward compatibility, facilitating seamless integration with existing technologies. By providing new fibre optic solutions, YOFC supports the green and low-carbon development of large-scale data centers in the age of AI, driving data centers toward a more efficient and environmentally friendly future. As a global leader in optical communications, YOFC has been deeply committed to innovation in MMFs for many years. Their MMF products are widely used around the world, earning the trust and praise of numerous customers. With these groundbreaking solutions, YOFC is dedicated to satisfying the growing demand for data transmission with enhanced efficiency and reliability. In doing so, the company is facilitating the growth of data centers in the AI era and beyond by addressing their need for higher speeds.

Hanwha Power Systems signed a business agreement at 'Gastech 2024' with a major European LNG carrier shipping company for the retrofitting o
Zero carbon emission goal, development of eco-friendly clean fuel ammonia gas turbine technology Establishment of eco-friendly fuel conversion cooperation with a major LNG carrier shipping company in Greece SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Hanwha Power Systems, a total energy equipment and marine solutions company of Hanwha Group, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with GasLog to convert its LNG carrier propulsion system to an ammonia gas turbine at Gastech 2024 held in Houston on September 19. Through this agreement, the two companies will discuss in more detail the demonstration plan to replace the existing fossil fuel powered vessels with eco-friendly ammonia gas turbines. In August, Hanwha Power Systems and Hanwha Ocean with the support of GasLog completed preliminary engineering and economic feasibility reviews for LNG carrier retrofitting. Following the signing of this MOU, Hanwha Power Systems and GasLog, as strategic partners, will continue their collaboration focusing on performance, economic and compliance assessments from a comprehensive perspective to promote the application of ammonia gas turbines in vessel retrofits. Meanwhile, in recent years, the shipping and shipbuilding industry has faced serious challenges in the face of carbon emission reduction regulations led by international organizations such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the European Union (EU). In anticipation of this new reality, Hanwha Power Systems, through its affiliate, Power Systems Mfg., LLC (PSM), located in the United States, has been actively developing an innovative Ammonia (NH3) Combustion System to meet the anticipated requirements of the IMO and EU "Fit for 55". These development activities include a successful full-scale, high-pressure test campaign. The PSM Ammonia Combustion System is planned to be implemented with a gas turbine intended for this propulsion power application. Hanwha Power Systems' move is attracting a lot of attention from shipowners who currently lack suitable alternatives for carbon reduction. Ongoing discussions are also taking place with some major ship owners. In particular, ship owners point out that ammonia gas turbines do not require pilot oil during normal operation, whereas engines typically use pilot oil at all operating points. For a gas turbine using ammonia fuel it is possible to operate completely carbon-free, or operators can freely mix ammonia and natural gas so that they can respond flexibly and economically to future regulations. The gas turbine will generate a negligible amount of methane slip, even if natural gas is used as fuel. Feasibility studies are ongoing for other potential fuels that could be used. After Hanwha Group acquired Hanwha Ocean, Hanwha Power Systems launched the Marine Solutions Business Division in May last year to promote ship modification and upgrades, ship availability and services, and eco-friendly fuel propulsion vessel business based on eco-friendly fuels. In particular, within about a year of the launch of the Marine Solutions Business Division, the company has signed contracts with the world's leading shipping companies for LNG Reliquefaction Unit retrofit work for LNG carrier, cargo carrying capacity improvement retrofit work for container ships, and installation of energy saving devices. Through this, it has been recognized for its technology and capabilities as a comprehensive solutions company, and is growing rapidly in the ship eco-friendly retrofitting market. The agreement is expected to play an important role in accelerating the transition to green fuels and could become a game-changer for many shipowners to tackle the carbon emissions challenges they face. Justin Lee, CEO of Hanwha Power Systems, said, "If the demonstration of ammonia gas turbines for ship propulsion is successful, it will be a major turning point in the global shipbuilding and shipping industry paving the way for eco-friendly fuel propulsion in vessels."
