Transmode introduces first all XFP-based 8G Fibre Channel over WDM solution May 28, 2009

Supporting the drive to ever higher bandwidth in SAN extension applications, such as data center interconnection projects, Transmode introduces 8G Fibre Channel (FC) support for its existing 10G Transponders for the TM-Series and TS-Series WDM platforms via the introduction of 8G XFP pluggable optics modules. Specifically the Dual 10G Lite Transponder in the TM-Series and the 7900 Transponder in the TS-Series support the new 8G FC XFP modules enabling both transponders to support 8G FC in addition to 10G FC, STM-64/OC-192 and 10G LAN and WAN Ethernet services.

Fibre Channel services are often deployed alongside Ethernet services and 8G FC will most commonly be deployed alongside 10G LAN Ethernet over WDM for datacenter interconnect projects.
