Apollo 9408

The Apollo 9400 series offers high density and low power consumption to meet the optical networking demands of communication service providers and webscale operators. The 2RU 9408 transport platform leads with a capacity of up to 1.2T wavelengths and a design capability of 19.2T, boasting a power consumption rate below 0.12W/G.

Apollo MPQ_8

MPQ_8 sled is a metro transport solution that offers low power consumption multi-source 0dBM QSFP-DD pluggables. MPQ_8 provides metro transport of 100GbE and 400GbE clients at 400G today, with a plug-and-replace upgrade path to 800G in early 2025 (when these 0dBm QSFP-DD pluggables become available) plus support for 800GbE clients at that time.
