Aquantia Announces Sampling

MILPITAS, Calif. -- Aquantia, the leading developer of mainstream 10GBASE-T solutions, today announced the sampling of the AQ1000 family of PHYs, the first 10GBASE-T PHYs that meet the requirements of volume platforms such as servers and aggregation switches within the data center. By enabling copper 10GE connectivity within the data center, Aquantia's new devices permit familiar RJ45 and copper cabling to deliver the benefits of 10GE without the costs and complexities of the XFP or SFP+ alternatives.

"The 10GBASE-T standard has been around for some time, but the first products were more proofs-of-concept than high-volume production vehicles," said Jag Bolaria, senior analyst at the Linley Group."Aquantia's new PHY products will reduce power dissipation sufficiently to kick off the start of volume deployments by server and switch vendors."
