UltraWireTM 112G PAM4 Smart Retimer

800G AEC with 2X Lower Power, 15X Lower Latency, and 40% Lower Cost

The UltraWireTM P1B121 Smart Retimer is a mixed-signal SoC that integrates eight-unidirectional 112G SerDes channels with smart Clock Data Recovery (CDR)/Retimer functions that achieve industry’s best power efficiency. The device is ideal for 800G/1.6T Active Electrical Cables (AECs) in Top-of-Rack (ToR) to Server, ToR-to-ToR, and Distributed Disaggregated Chassis (DDC) connectivity for AI Clusters in hyperscale Data Centers, Enterprise, and edge cloud installations. Accelerate 800G AEC designs with C-TubeTM 800G AEC reference platform. This platform includes production-ready board design and proven firmware tested for CMIS functionality and field deployments.

Setting the standard for Energy Efficiency – 800G performance at an industry low of <5.0W per cable end

Incredibly fast – 800G performance with latency that is 75% lower than other solutions, enabling unprecedented throughput for GPU/HPC clusters in AI/ML applications

Thinner, lighter, and more flexible – Deploy AECs with 40% less volume to reduce cable congestion and improve airflow in data center rack installations

Designed for scalability – Programmable equalization enables a single board design for multiple  cable SKUs at different lengths and energy levels

Unparalleled Signal Quality – Exceptional signal quality with pre-FEC Bit Error Rate (BER) that is one order in magnitude better than other solutions, ensuring reliable data transmission with smaller gauge copper wiring

Intelligent diagnostics – Deliver best-in-class reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) with intelligent diagnostic features that monitor crucial parameters such as BER, eye-opening, temperature, and loss-of-signal (LOS), allowing for proactive maintenance and optimized network performance
