Data center demand for connectivity speed and data volume is likely to be four times its current level by 2030. This requirement places an enormous burden on the interconnects between servers in the data center — components that can number in the hundreds of thousands for even a single data center.

For telecom OEMs designing devices that feature all new specifications, push the limits of performance, and/or combine functionality in unique ways, close collaboration with a knowledgeable filter supplier is essential to unlock the full range of benefits multi-function filters can provide.

Satellite optical filter specifications generally are limited by system design. Tradeoffs must be considered: when one spec is improved, another may suffer. Maximizing performance in one area may “design out” overall system capability. A system will not work as expected if it is not properly characterized.

Midwave infrared (MWIR) light is important in many hardware applications, and optical filters are critical to success. Some simple practices can help avoid over-specifying filter characteristics and driving up costs.

Space is the new technological frontier, and constellations of satellites designed for earth observation and satellite communications are gathering data at unprecedented rates. These next-generation satellites require next-generation technology, including advanced spectral filters that separate optical signals from background noise.
