Quellan specializes in analog components that improve the performance and functionality of electronic equipment. By removing channel impairments and interference noise, channel performance is dramatically improved across multiple market segments, and end user products are greatly enhanced.

Quellan's Collaborative Signal Processing Architecture product line is very diverse and serves a variety of markets including the Data Center, the Enterprise, Telecom, Satellite Broadcast, Vehicular Technology and the Consumer Electronics Market.

See revolutionary active cable assemblies for datacenters powered by Quellan's Q:ACTIVE Lane Extension Semiconductor Technology. Unlike conventional equalizer technology, Q:ACTIVE-technology maintains protocol compliance with a variety of high-speed data transmission standards, including Infiniband (SDR, DDR), PCIe (Gen1, Gen2), 10GbE, and SAS. In addition, the Q:ACTIVE solution is applicable to a wide range of twin-axial cabling solutions. Q:ACTIVE-enabled active cable assemblies have the same connector form factors as conventional passive cable assemblies but provide up to a 3x increase in cable length with a simultaneous 3x reduction in cable weight and diameter. With a power consumption of just 60mW per channel and a latency of 300ps, Q:ACTIVE technology is the ideal reach extension enabler for copper interconnects in next-generation datacenters.

Meet the industry's first extended reach CX4 Mezzanine Card. The card is for use with the Fulcrum FocalPoint switch reference design, which will allow OEMs to seamlessly attain up to 40 meters of reach on up to 24 ports of 10-Gigabit Ethernet. The Mezzanine Cards are populated with Quellan's QLx4300 Lane Manager Chips that actively remove impairments and compensate for channel loss, allowing data center managers to use ultra-thin 30 gauge CX4 cabling for increased airflow, density and manageability or extend the reach of traditional 24 gauge cable to up to 40 meters. The FocalPoint FM2224 is a breakthrough 10-Gigabit Ethernet switch chip with 200ns of total latency, making Ethernet the new cost-effective and high-performance choice for storage, computing and networking backplane and interconnect applications. The FM2224 features 24 integrated 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, each of which can be configured to operate in 10Gbps, 2.5 Gbps and 10/100/1000 modes.
