40 Gbps P-OCKET Video Demonstration
See the 40 Gbps OTN Mapper and EFEC demo using low-power, high-density 40-nm FPGA online now.
TPACK's VP of Product Line Management, Thomas Rasmussen, is demonstrating our OTN Mapper together with Jeff Wimett from Altera.
The video demonstration (about 6 minutes long) can be viewed here

Looking back at 2009 and into 2010
As the year 2009 is coming to an end, it is time to reflect on the successes achieved over the past 12 months. The past year has been full of new and interesting developments. In the late spring, TPACK's board of directors appointed a new CEO to lead our growth and expand our market share even further. With Colin Macnab onboard, we have successfully sharpened the company's SOFTSILICON strategy towards more standard products within the P-OTN space. And with several important new design wins in the second half of 2009, we are already starting to see the success of this strategy.

On the product side, 2009 has been a fruitful year. During the course of the past 12 months, we have launched three new products. The TPX4004 Carrier Packet Engine, a 40 - 80 Gbps full duplex non-blocking L2 switch, and a brand new family of OTN Mappers called P-OCKET ranging from 2,5 Gbps to 40 Gbps. The first two products in the family, TPO124 and TPO314 were demonstrated at this year's SUPERCOMM exhibition with great success. Our roadmap for 2010 contains exciting new 100 Gbps products.

In 2010, you can come and hear experts from TPACK speak about both the OTN space and the 100 Gbps project that TPACK is involved in together with the Advanced Technology Foundation of Denmark (Hoejteknologifonden) and Xena Networks. TPACK has a number of speaking slots at a variety of important European, North American and Chinese exhibitions and conferences within our field. See more information about these events below in the Event Calendar.

2009 TPACK media related articles
In 2009, TPACK has contributed to a number of interesting articles on
P-OTN, our SOFTSILICON approach, low power consumption, our participation in a 100 Gbps project led by the Advanced Technology Foundation of Denmark (Hoejteknologifonden)called "The Road to 100 Gigabit Ethernet", and GE over ODU0 networking.
In addition, our TPOX3203 Packet Optical Engine won the Communications Solutions Product Of The Year award and EN-Genius gave our new P-OCKET family of OTN Mappers a very good product review.
