Featured Products:

Nova 2: The industry’s first 1.6T optical DSP featuring 200G per lane electrical and optical I/O, Marvell® Nova 2 enables module integrators to produce industry-standard optical transceivers delivering the bandwidth density required by switches, AI accelerators and other devices. 200 Gbps per lane I/O is a defining feature of next-generation data center architectures.

Nova 1, a 1.6T optical DSP featuring 100G per lane electrical I/O and 200G per lane optical interfaces.
Marvell 3D Silicon Photonics Engine: The Marvell 3D SiPho Engine combines hundreds of components needed for optical communications into a single device. Featuring 200G I/O, 3D SiPho Engine delivers 2x the bandwidth, 2x the input/output (I/O) bandwidth density, and 30% lower power per bit versus comparable devices with 100 Gbps electrical and optical interfaces1. Potential applications include modules for AI clusters.
Spica™ Gen2-T: A new category of optical DSPs, Spica Gen2-T is designed for transmit retimed optical (TRO) modules, an emerging class of modules for AI and cloud use cases. Transmit-only DSPs enable TROs to reduce power consumption by more than 40% compared to conventional transceivers2. Spica Gen2-T is the fourth 800 Gbps optical DSP from Marvell and part of its effort to optimize optical DSPs, along with other cloud and AI silicon, for specific use cases and applications.
COLORZ® 800: First Demo of Probabilistic Constellation Shaping at 800 Gbps and Industry Momentum. Probabilistic Constellation Shaping (PCS) effectively doubles the reach of coherent DSP modules employed for long-distance communications.
O-band Optics: At higher bandwidths, O-band optics can potentially cover greater lengths than PAM4 DSPs while consuming less power than today’s coherent DSPs.
Orion with InnoLight and HGGenuine: new 800G ZR/ZR+ modules powered by Orion for data center interconnects, IP over DWDM, and other use cases.
