  • How to expand the capacity of fiber optic cables in Costa Rica

    How to expand the capacity of fiber optic cables in Costa Rica

    The Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE), through its commercial brand, kölbi, has announced the integration of the next-generation TAM-1 submarine cable, a strategic infrastructure project that will expand the country's international connectivity capacity 23-fold. The 7,000-kilometer cable will run along the Atlantic coast, connecting the United States to South America, significantly reducing latency—the delay between an action and its response—a critical factor for real-time applications like video calls, online gaming, and financial trading. Following the successful completion of Phase 1 in 2025, which connected eight major. The announcement, made on November 5, 2025, details the completion of the project's first phase, which focuses on the rugged stretch between the Zurquí Tunnel and the city of Guápiles. This initiative addresses a long-standing communication gap by deploying new mobile and fiber optic.

  • 32-channel wavelength division multiplexer

    32-channel wavelength division multiplexer

    A compact 32-channel silicon-based wavelength filter is demonstrated for the first time with low loss and high tuning efficiency, enabling a 4x increase in the number of transmitted and received wavelength channels compared to today's commercial transceivers. This technique enables bidirectional communications over a. ACP's Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexer (DWDM) utilizes thin technology and proprietary design of non-flux metal bonding packaging to achieve optical add and drop at the ITU wavelength. We experimentally demonstrate less than -40 dB crosstalk for wavelength channel spacing of. Wavelength division multiplexing is a method of modulating multiple signals at different wavelengths (channels) to transmit them on a single waveguide or fiber. To begin with, we assume that we have the element parameters from a known process design kit (PDK). The transmitter section consists of a 32-channel WDM transmitter and multiplexer; the frequency spacing is 100 GHz.
