DESCRIPTION
Quellan’s Q:ACTIVE® Technology is the first silicon-based solution developed specifically for copper interconnect applications. Integrating Q:ACTIVE components into each end of a copper cable assembly boosts the signal and reduces noise to provide a dramatic decrease in cable gauge and an increase in cable reach - up to three times that of a passive cable. Integrating Q:ACTIVE into linecards, switch cards and backplanes provides dramatic improvement in signal integrity of these interconnects. This allows the use of cost effective PCB laminates while also employing simpler ASICS without complex signal conditioning techniques.
The QLx111G is the industry first settable quad equalizer tailored for InfiniBand operation. The equalizer compensates for frequency dependent attenuation of non-return-to-zero (NRZ) data and extends the signal reach to over 15m on 24AWG cable at 11.3 Gbps. The small form factor, highly-integrated quad design is ideal for high-density 4 lane cable and PCB applications.
