Mintera Ships Industry’s First 3.5” x 4.5” 40 Gbps
DWDM DPSK Module

MI 7000XM Adaptive-DPSK™ Small Form Factor
Module Now Shipping to Customers


Acton, Mass., May 18, 2010 – Mintera® Corporation, the high performance optical transport systems solutions leader, today announced the industry’s first shipment of a small form factor 40 Gbps DWDM DPSK transceiver module. Mintera’s MI 7000XM Adaptive-DPSK™ product delivers industry leading optical performance in a standard 3.5” x 4.5” 300-pin package.

“This shipment signals the next phase in 40 Gbps evolution with the first delivery of a new generation of 40 Gbps DWDM modules,” said Terry Unter, Mintera President and CEO. “The MI 7000XM delivers superior optical performance but is half the size and half the power dissipation of the previous generation of DWDM 40 Gbps 300-pin modules.”

The patent-pending Adaptive-DPSK technology incorporated in Mintera’s MI 7000XM DWDM module enables 40 Gbps transport on 50GHz channel-spaced systems and transmission over agile ROADM networks without compromising critical ULH reach. The unit maintains the same industry standard interfaces as its predecessor, the MI 4000XM thus enabling existing Mintera customers to use the MI 7000XM module on line cards designed for the MI 4000XM. This backward compatibility enables Mintera’s customers to bring the latest technology to the market rapidly without incurring significant development costs.
