Optical engines for co- or near-packaged applications
Optimize your network for tomorrow’s ultra-dense, high-XPU-count AI factories. By minimizing the length of ASIC-to-optics interconnects, co-packaged and near-packaged optical (CPO/NPO) implementations significantly reduce power consumption, allowing this critical resource to be redirected towards XPU operations. Additionally, CPO/NPO architectures reduce latency and support higher optical port densities.
Benefits
-
Reduce system power
Linear architectures such as CPO/NPO eliminate the need for local signal conditioning digital signal processors (DSPs) or retimers, significantly reducing power consumption
-
Maximize shoreline efficiency
High-density CPO/NPO optical engines enable total ASIC I/O capacity to approach petabit scale
-
Service lasers in the field
By using external light source modules, lasers can be changed out on-site if required
Vesta optical engines
Gain exceptional shoreline efficiency with best-in-class bandwidth density. The robust and highly scalable design of the Vesta optical engines uses industry-proven architectures manufactured with a high-volume silicon photonics process. Multiple form factor options include land grid array (LGA) and flexible co-packaged connector (CPX).
Benefits
-
High density and low power
Maximize ASIC data throughput while minimizing power consumption with the most dense, lowest power CPO/NPO solution available
-
System flexibility support
Enable the use of high-density sockets with their compact size, allowing both co-packaged copper and co-packaged optics to be integrated into a single, reconfigurable PCB design
-
Open ecosystem
Empower you to develop best-in-class network elements by independently selecting optimal ASIC and interconnect solutions
