EFFECT Photonics

Five years from now, the amount of Internet data we consume in a year will be consumed in just one month. To keep up with this demand, we need to rethink the way people communicate, stream videos, and discover the world through the Internet. EFFECT Photonics pioneers technology that can achieve this goal. EFFECT Photonics is a cutting-edge developer in the field of high-speed optical transceivers for communication networks. We develop products for fiber-optic communication systems based on Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology and we deliver highly-integrated optical communications products based on our DWDM optical System-on-Chip (SoC) technology. All the active and passive optical functions are developed on a single chip that is only slightly bigger than a grain of rice. The chip is then combined with simple packaging to create photonic transceivers that are used to address the soaring demand for affordable bandwidth.
