NTT Electronics starts shipping 140 Gbaud High-performance Coherent DSP
6.3.2023 21:00:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
NTT Electronics, a leading supplier of coherent Digital Signal Processor (DSP) solutions to system and module manufacturers worldwide, today announced start of 140 Gbaud high-performance coherent DSP (ExaSPEED GAIA) shipment to customers. ExaSPEED GAIA achieves world's largest transmission capacity of 1.2 Tbit/s per wavelength by utilizing a programmable baud rate of up to 140 Gbaud powered by a flexible coded modulation scheme and advanced 5nm FinFET CMOS process.
“We are excited to add the ExaSPEED GAIA DSP to our product portfolio which cuts the power consumption per bit to half while doubling the baud rate over earlier product offering,” said Satoshi Shigematsu, NTT Electronics General Manager of Broadband System & Device Business Unit. “We believe this high-performance DSP will help our customers offer highly differentiated optical transmission equipment and systems”, he added.
The programmable baud rate can support very fine granularity that enables ExaSPEED GAIA to adapt to a range of links while maximizing spectral efficiency. These include short-reach data center interconnects (DCI), terrestrial metro links with cascaded ROADMs, and ultra-long-haul sub-sea links. Customers can use a wide range of 400G interfaces in 1.2T (3x400GbE) for DCI, 800G (2x400GbE) for metro and 400G (1x400GbE) for sub-sea applications. This capability helps simplify interfaces and optimize Capital/Operational expenditure. Moreover, ExaSPEED GAIA also offers fine capacity tuning in 50G increments to respond to various customer requirements.
Flexible coded modulation is the newly-developed coding scheme to efficiently implement advanced constellation shaping, forward error correction (FEC), and high-order modulation format with high performance and low power. This enables ExaSPEED GAIA to support thousands of operational modes that cover a multitude of customer's transmission links with high energy efficiency. To enhance the performance, ExaSPEED GAIA employs a number of novel compensation algorithms including nonlinear distortion compensation, adaptive fast state of polarization (SOP) tracking, fast device and transmission characteristics estimation, and ultra-long CD compensation for high-baud rate systems*. The performance of ExaSPEED GAIA can be further optimized by combining it with NTT Electronics’ industry-leading high speed coherent driver module (UHB-CDM).
"We are very impressed with the performance of NTT Electronics’ latest ExaSPEED GAIA DSP," commented Hideki Matsui, Vice Head of Photonics System Business Unit, Fujitsu Limited. “This revolutionary DSP makes our products more competitive in the market and enables us to offer innovative solutions. It opens up a new 'terabit era,' which will be a game changer in our industry,” he added.
“This state-of-the-art DSP, we believe would be key to realize the future information-centric society,” said Akio Goto, General Manager of Photonics Device Development Division, NEC Corporation. He also said, “We are excited to introduce ExaSPEED GAIA in conjunction with CDM in our DWDM products to build diverse, high-throughput and green optical networks.”

Tanner Pharma Group and Biodexa Launch Global Early Access Program for FAP Patients31.3.2026 15:00:00 EEST | Press release
Tanner Pharma Group, a global provider of specialty medicine access solutions, and Biodexa Pharmaceuticals PLC (Nasdaq: BDRX), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative products for gastrointestinal cancers, have announced a strategic partnership to enable global access to eRapa for patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) through an Early Access / Named Patient Program. FAP is characterized by a proliferation of polyps in the colon and/or rectum, usually occurring in mid-teens. There is no approved therapeutic option, and surgical resection remains the standard of care. eRapa is a proprietary oral capsule formulation of rapamycin (sirolimus), an mTOR inhibitor involved in cellular metabolism, growth, and proliferation and activated during tumorigenesis. mTOR has been shown to be over-expressed in FAP polyps, supporting the rationale for its use in treatment. Through this collaboration, Tanner Pharma will facilitate compliant, controlled access to eRapa
Esri and RoboGarden Sign Strategic MOU to Advance Geospatial and Geomatics Education31.3.2026 15:00:00 EEST | Press release
Esri, the global leader in geographic information system (GIS) technology, today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with RoboGarden Inc. The MOU is aimed at expanding geospatial and geomatics education, improving academic collaboration, and strengthening global workforce readiness. Specifically, this new agreement establishes a framework for Esri and RoboGarden to evaluate new approaches for scalable digital learning, regional responsiveness, and curriculum-aligned academic pathways. The MOU’s four strategic objectives include: creation of a geospatial and geomatics virtual academy, stronger regional execution and responsiveness, academic partnership pathways, and localized esri e-learning opportunities. Organizations across industries will benefit from this initiative, such as business, government agencies, academia, as well as individual learners seeking job-ready skills in GIS. “Esri’s MOU with RoboGarden creates an important opportunity to explore new mode
