The 47^th Optical Fibre Communication Conference & Exhibition (OFC), which is the largest global conference and exhibition for optical communications and networking professionals, was held from March 6 to 10 at the San Diego Convention Center, United States. As a global leading enterprise in the optical communication industry, Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Joint Stock Limited Company (hereinafter referred to as "YOFC", Stock Code: 601869.SH, 06869.HK) brought its products and solutions such as Band series optical fibres, optical transceivers, components for vehicle-mounted radar, active optical cables, quartz materials etc., to take the attention of audiences.

Band series optical fibres

With outstanding performance, excellent quality and wide connectivity, the Band series optical fibres of YOFC fibre can address the needs in various scenarios, from access network to backbone network, from land to sea. Among them, a series of new optical fibre products suitable for 5G network construction, such as FarBand ultra-strong ultra-low attenuation G.654.E fibre, ClearBand dispersion flat new fibre, EasyBand ultra-small outer diameter bending insensitive single-mode fibre, have paved the way for the technical development of 5G and F5G.

Optical transceivers

YOFC has a complete industry chain from device packaging to module assembly in the field of optical transceivers. It has built a unique automated manufacturing system in the industry and launched a series of high-density, low-power-consumption and low-cost optical transceivers such as 25G, 50G, 100G, 200G and 400G, which can be widely used in the fields of 5G transmission and data center. Meanwhile, YOFC is also funneling great resources into developing next-generation data center optical transceivers, aimed to provide customers with more accurate, professional and comprehensive solutions.

Solutions for components for vehicle radar

As the "eyes" of driverless vehicles, vehicle-mounted radar is one of the most important sensors. Building on its strengths in specialty optical fibres, and combined with the client application cases, YOFC has been taking a dive into the 1,550nm wavelength optical amplification module and related products that are safe to human eyes. At this spectacular event YOFC showed its products which can ensure the safe unmanned driving such as optical amplification module, optical connection components and supporting products for vehicle-mounted radar in this exhibition to move forward the rapid development of unmanned driving industry.

Active optical cable

In the active optical cable exhibition area, YOFC highlighted what its subsidiary, EverPro Technology Co., Ltd boasts for, namely the active optical fibre data cable products such as FIBBR Pure3 8K HDMI2.1. This product can realize lossless high efficient transmission, bending insensitive, and cater to people's pursuit of high-definition picture quality and stereo sound effects in home video, 8K, VR and other application scenarios.

Quartz materials

YOFC displayed high purity synthetic quartz ingots and quartz substrates that meet the needs of lithography masks for the semiconductor industry, demonstrating its ability to develop and produce quartz raw materials to meet the finishing products for various industries and fields such as semiconductors and precision optics.

ODN products

In this exhibition, YOFC focused on the F.ODN pre-connected solution. This is a solution in which all boxes and cables are factory pre-assembled with no fusion points during the whole process. High-quality IP68 protection grade optical distribution box, fully sealed design, service opening without repeated opening of the box. The supporting MPO cable and 1F cable are all pre-configured connectors that can be plugged and used on site for rapid deployment. The box and cable are fully decoupled and can be constructed in parallel.  F.ODN pre-connected solution greatly improves the installation efficiency of ODN products, reduces labor cost by 60%, and improves network failure recovery efficiency by 90%.

Guided by the mission of "Smart Link Better Life", YOFC has been participating in OFC for many years to share the latest market dynamics and technology trends, and contribute to the sustainable development of the global optical communication industry.

The OFC is jointly organized by the Optical Society of America (OSA), the Communications Society of America (IEEE/ComSoc), and the Laser and Electro-Optical Society of America (IEEE/LEOS). OFC is currently recognized as the largest and most professional and influential international event in the field of optical communication with the longest history. It keeps you current on the latest technological advances in optical communication modules, systems and networks.
