ADVA and PSNC showcase 1200G channel transmission at SC19
ADVA (FSE: ADV) today announced that it’s hosting a joint showcase with PSNC at SC19 that features the industry’s first 1200Gbit/s optical channel transmission. Built upon the ADVA FSP 3000 TeraFlex™ terminal, the demo underscores the power of adaptive technology to maximize bandwidth efficiency in any network scenario. Using fractional QAM capabilities to boost fiber utilization and channel capacity, the demo highlights how network operators and enterprises can cost-effectively inject capacity into their networks without major upgrades. At SC19, TeraFlex™ will carry 1200Gbit/s channels in a 150GHz window or 800Gbit/s channels in a 100GHz window, delivering an industry-leading spectral efficiency of 8bit/s/Hz. These figures set a new benchmark for a commercially available product. The ADVA FSP 3000 TeraFlex™ has now been shipping for several months.

“As we approach the Shannon Limit, our compact and open FSP 3000 TeraFlex™ provides an entirely new route to network capacity expansion. This demo reveals how operators can enhance optical paths and reduce cost per bit right now,” said Christoph Glingener, CTO, ADVA. “Transmission terminal design is all about utilizing fiber in the most efficient way, and that’s why our FSP 3000 TeraFlex™ is the high-speed terminal of choice. By providing a 1200Gbit/s channel that consumes only 150GHz of spectrum, we’re leading the industry with spectral efficiency and channel capacity. Compared with the promise of rival 800Gbit/s solutions that are still many months away, we’re delivering 50% more capacity today – and with the added bonus of significantly better reach.”
Presented at SC19, the live demo highlights how spectral efficiency is key to maximizing bandwidth in existing networks. It shows how super-channels in increments of 50GHz are ideal for maximizing client port flexibility while ensuring compatibility with legacy line systems. Using software-defined fractional QAM modulation and adaptive baud rate capabilities, the ADVA FSP 3000 TeraFlex™ can support 1200Gbit/s channels carrying three 400Gbit/s clients or 800Gbit/s channels carrying two 400Gbit/s clients. The reach and spectral efficiency of the dual-core coherent engine implementation is superior to future single-core 800Gbit/s concepts that have reduced client port flexibility and often leave spectrum unutilized.
“Terabit channels are fast becoming essential. Our network enables Europe’s scientific community to share huge data sets and access the most advanced supercomputing applications. But empowering those researchers to stay at the forefront of discovery requires a new level of reach and spectral efficiency. With this demo, we’re showing how mission-critical long-haul networks like ours, which are not fiber-rich, can meet unprecedented data demand,” commented Artur Binczewski, director, Network Division, PSNC. “The ADVA FSP 3000 TeraFlex™ provides the flexibility and granularity needed to squeeze maximum value from our fiber plant. Now we can transmit twelve 100Gbit/s or three 400Gbit/s signals in a single Terabit channel that consumes just 150GHz of spectrum. That level of efficiency enables us to achieve more than we ever thought possible with our DCI network.”
The demo will be on display at SC19 at booth 1955 until Thursday, November 21.

Paymentology Launches PayCredit to Power Credit Innovation for Digital Banks and Fintechs22.10.2025 11:00:00 EEST | Press release
Paymentology, the leading global issuer-processor, has launched PayCredit, an advanced credit ledger platform designed to help financial institutions deliver tailored, feature rich credit products at speed, overcoming the limitations of legacy and core banking systems. Amid rising demand for flexible financial payment tools, credit cards remain a critical instrument for enabling consumer spending, managing cash flow, and deepening customer loyalty. Yet many legacy credit systems lack the flexibility to meet the expectations of today's consumers, who demand a combination of both revolving and instalment credit to help them better manage their money, whilst many modern ledgers are retrofitted from a debit architecture and struggle to provide credit processing. PayCredit was developed from the ground up with credit billing cycles and logic at its core, making it easier for issuers to build products that reflect real-world behaviours, from revolving balances to instalments and Buy Now, Pay

Kyowa Kirin International (KKI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd. (TSE:4151, Kyowa Kirin), a Japan-based global specialty pharmaceutical company, and the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, today announced new overall survival (OS) insights from the PROCLIPI (PROgnostic Cutaneous Lymphoma International Prognostic Index) Study aligning with previous findings that suggest mogamulizumab may offer meaningful OS benefit for patients living with mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS), two rare conditions and subtypes of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).2 Key findings2: For patients with advanced-stage MF and SS (n=371), the median overall survival from the onset of treatment was higher for patients treated with mogamulizumab (n=72) at 64 months compared with those not receiving mogamulizumab (n=175) at 54 months (p<0.01). Patients treated with mogamulizumab showed a trend toward improved OS compared to those not receiving mogamulizumab across risk
