Orange completes successful trial of Fujitsu 1FINITY optical transport solution
Fujitsu 1FINITY T900 lab trial validates reduced cost per bit for more sustainable, high-performance, high-capacity networking KAWASAKI, Japan, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ -- Fujitsu Limited announced that Orange S.A. successfully completed a lab evaluation of the Fujitsu 1FINITY™ T900 Series Transponder. The evaluation demonstrated outstanding performance at 800Gbps wavelengths over long distances with low power consumption, enabling affordable and sustainable optical transport. Network operators face the challenge of transporting more traffic at a lower cost per bit due to increasing data demands and rising costs. This is further complicated by high energy costs and environmental sustainability goals, pushing network operators to reduce power consumption for a lower carbon footprint. Orange's evaluation at its Innovation Labs in France revealed that the 1FINITY T900 transponder maintained low and constant power consumption across all transmission rates, achieving a transport distance of at least 1600 km at 800Gbps with power consumption below 150 Watts. This demonstrates the potential for even greater long-haul transport distance and capacity without increased power consumption. This energy efficiency is enabled by Fujitsu's unique closed-loop liquid cooling technology. Combined with its ability to support up to 1.2Tbps per wavelength, the liquid-cooled transponder offers increased spectral efficiency for optimum capacity and reach, resulting in a lower cost per bit per km, reduced operating costs, and improved sustainability. Houmed Ibrahim, Optical Transport Innovation leader at Orange, emphasized the company's commitment to deploying high-performance networks with minimal power consumption. Hideki Matsui, head of Photonics System Business Unit at Fujitsu, stated that the 1FINITY T900 solution empowers extreme scale and reliable terabit performance while consuming up to 70% less power at 800Gbps wavelengths. Fujitsu is establishing a new company, 1FINITY Inc., on July 1 to consolidate its network business products and operations. This aims to accelerate the delivery of high-quality optical and wireless solutions globally, contributing to a more sustainable future.

Los Angeles Dodgers Shohei Ohtani pays emotional tribute to baseball legend after his death
Shohei Ohtani has paid an emotional tribute to Japanese baseball legend Shigeo Nagashima on social media after his passing on Tuesday at age 89. Ohtani had met the baseball legend on a few occasions, most recently during MLB's Japan series earlier this year. Nagashima died of pneumonia, with Ohtani leading the tributes to one of the greatest to ever play in the professional leagues in Japan. 'We sincerely pray for the repose of your soul,' Ohtani said on Instagram, with a trio of photos of the duo together. Two of the photos are from earlier this year with a third being from earlier in Ohtani's professional career. When playing professionally in Japan, Ohtani suited up for the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters who share a stadium with the Yomiuri Giants, who Nagashima had a long playing career for and two stints as a manager. Nagashima was a third baseman for the Giants from 1958 through 1974, the only professional team he was ever affiliated with. Upon his retirement, he was named the Giants' manager, changing the style of the team that more fit his persona. After his shocking firing as manger in 1980, he was brought back to the Giants in 1992, where he stayed until 2001. The biggest star for the Giants during Nagashima's second tenure as coach was former New York Yankees' outfielder Hideki Matsui. Nagashima's 444 home runs rank No 15 all time in Japanese baseball. Ohtani will play in his first game since Nagashima's passing on Tuesday night against the New York Mets.

Shigeo Nagashima, known in Japan as 'Mr. Pro Baseball,' dies at 89
TOKYO — Shigeo Nagashima, who was known in Japan as 'Mr. Pro Baseball' and was one of the most famous people in the country during his playing days, has died. He was 89. His death was confirmed Tuesday by the Yomiuri Giants, the team he helped make famous and eventually managed. His passing was also announced in special extra editions of newspapers that are handed out on street corners — a throwback to breaking news in an earlier time. He was famous in a period before Japanese players like Ichiro Suzuki and Shohei Ohtani began to star in North American MLB. Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi said Nagashima 'gave bright dreams and hopes to the society.' Nagashima helped lead the Giants as they won nine straight Japan Series titles — the counterpart to the World Series — from 1965 through 1973. His equally famous teammate was Sadaharu Oh, who hit 868 home runs in his career. Nagashima played third base, finished with a .305 batting average, had 2,471 hits, 1,522 RBIs and 444 home runs. He played for 17 seasons and retired in 1974, then returned to manage the Giants in 1975 through 1980. He was fired after the 1980 season when the Giants failed to win the Japan Series during his stint. He returned to the dugout in 1993 and led the Giants to the Japan Series title in 1994 with Hideki Matsui, who eventually joined the New York Yankees. He also won the championship in 2000. He was to set to manage Japan in the 2004 Athens Olympics, but had a stroke a few months before that left him partially paralyzed and unable to participate. ___ AP MLB:
