ACES will Offer Products with Spectra7's Low Power Analog GaugeChanger Chips

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- (TSXV: SEV) (OTCQB: SPVNF) Spectra7 Microsystems Inc. ("Spectra7" or the "Company"), a leading provider of high-performance analog semiconductor products for broadband connectivity markets, today announced that ACES Electronics Co., Ltd ("ACES"), a leading Taiwan-based connector and cable supplier, will offer 800Gbps Active Copper Cable (ACC) assemblies to Hyperscalers and OEM/ODMs that will include Spectra7's GC1122 GaugeChanger chips.

"Spectra7 has created an innovative and compelling solution to address the dramatically increasing power and cost of data center interconnects," said Mick Felton, Director of Engineering, ACES US. "We are seeing significant interest from our largest North American customers for 800 Gbps ACCs with Spectra7's technology and are pleased to be working with Spectra7."

GaugeChanger™ is a unique analog redriver technology that allows copper to extend to much longer lengths without the cost and power penalty of optics or DSP based retimed copper solutions. Competing technologies typically use 700 to 1000% more power than Spectra7's GaugeChanger™ technology.

"We are extremely proud to be working with ACES to broaden access to our ACC solutions using Spectra7's innovative GaugeChanger™ technology," said Spectra7 CMO John Mitchell. "ACES is a well-known manufacturer of electronic connectors, supplying solutions across a global customer base for use in the Hyperscale, OEM and ODM interconnect markets. The 800Gbps market is of particular interest to Hyperscale customers in North America who are presently developing their next generation of data centers, which we expect to begin deployment later in 2023."
