CPO Switch (Co-Packaged Optics Switch)

What is a CPO switch?

CPO switches are a next-generation network switch technology that integrates an ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) for data switching and an optical engine for handling optical signals within the same package.
Traditionally, optical transceivers were plugged into external ports on the switch, and signals were transmitted via long cables. However, CPO places the optical function right next to the chip. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for DSP (Digital Signal Processing), which was required for conventional optical transceivers.

Key Benefits

- Significantly reduces power consumption (maximum 50% (End)
Low latency, high throughput
- Improved rack space efficiency through increased density
DSP Cost reduction due to elimination of unnecessary items

Light and electricity 1 By packing everything into a single package, this product overcomes the limitations of power consumption and communication latency that were previously posed to high-speed data centers, making it a noteworthy product for such environments.

Switch products

We offer a wide range of white Box and commercial switch products, from 1G to 800G, for data centers, AI clusters, and enterprise networks.
Each product is compatible with operating systems such as SONiC and HULKOS.
