SFP+ Line of Products Enabling Connectivity for 2.5G, 5G and 10G BASE-T Networking
The recently announced Aquantia AQS series modules deliver the flexibility and port density well known to the SFP+ form-factor while utilizing the existing twisted-pair copper cabling for network connectivity. These power-optimized solutions enable 10GBASE-T for lengths up to 30 meters and 100 meters for 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T.
Aquantia's solutions feature an active rate-adaptation technology that allows users to seamlessly use 2.5G and 5G modules in existing SFP+ slots that were previously considered suitable only for 10G fiber optic or Direct-Attach Copper (DAC) cables — at a superior cost/performance point.
