CIG expands 5G wireless product range for front-haul, mid-haul and back-haul applications

At China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE 2019) in Shenzhen, China (4-7 September), Shanghai-based Cambridge Industries Group (CIG, a ODM/JDM/EMS supplier for the ICT industry) has announced a full suite of products for 5G wireless front-haul, mid-haul and back-haul applications, and a live demonstration of its 25G SFP28 ER 40km product.

Next-generation 5G wireless networks require transmission speeds of 10-25G; reaches spanning 300m, 10km, 20km and 40km; operation temperatures up to the industrial temperature range; and BiDi or CWDM products for markets where fiber is scarce.

The new suite of products includes:

25G SFP28 I-temp 300m, LR/10km, 20km, ER/40km;
25G SFP28 BiDi I-temp 10km, 20km, 40km; and
25G SFP28 CWDM I-temp 10km.

“CIG is dedicated to meet the needs of 5G wireless markets with our full suite of 5G products,” says Rose Hu, senior VP, marketing. “With our packaging technologies for the uncooled directly modulated lasers (DML), we strive to quickly bring low-cost, low-power and high-reliability optical transceiver modules to the markets to serve our 5G wireless customers,” she adds.

“5G is one of the key large infrastructure programs in China, where it is seen as critical for boosting economic growth,” comments John Lively, senior principal analyst, LightCounting Market Research. “Wide deployment of 5G will be a game changer, enabling many new applications and services,” he adds. “CIG has addressed the optical transceiver needs of the 5G wireless network with the development of its 25G I-temp devices.”
