BURNABY, British Columbia -- Extending its physical layer product line for high-speed optical networks, PMC-Sierra (NASDAQ: PMCS) today announced the PM8355 QuadPHY-II, PM8351 OctalPHY and PM8353 QuadPHY. These highly integrated Serializer/Deserializer (SERDES) devices are designed to lower the power and speed the deployment of high density Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, Infiniband optical module interfaces, and multi-gigabit serial backplanes in next-generation optical networking equipment. The QuadPHY-II, OctalPHY and QuadPHY devices dramatically increase system design flexibility by allowing easy interconnection of chip level and board level building blocks used in Gigabit and Terabit Switches/Routers (Enterprise, Access, Edge, and Storage Area Networks) and Multi Service Provisioning Platforms.
