The XPO (Reconfigurable AI Optical Pluggable Module) is revolutionizing AI-scale optical networking with its innovative design, delivering significant upgrades in bandwidth density and thermal efficiency. Here’s why it stands out:
Key Features
High Bandwidth Density & Efficient Thermal Dissipation
The XPO module is engineered to meet the demands of AI Scale Up / Scale Out / Scale Across requirements, offering ultra-high panel density and flexible transmission rates.
Near-Term Reconfigurable Transceiver
Designed for scenario-driven applications, the XPO is not bound to a fixed transmission rate, making it adaptable to evolving network needs.
Advanced Cooling System
The module features liquid cooling technology, including a liquid inlet manifold, outlet manifold, and cold plate interface, ensuring efficient heat dissipation even under high-performance workloads.
Compliance with XPO MSA Specification
Supports multiple optical transmission standards, including SR, DR, FR, LR, and ZR/ZR+, enabling compatibility with diverse network architectures.
Density Improvement Over OSFP
Delivers 4X higher rack-unit (1U) capacity compared to OSFP modules, supporting up to 16 XPO modules per 1.2 Tbps switch system, delivering 204.8 Tbps.
Why It Matters
As data centers and AI infrastructures continue to scale, the need for high-density, efficient, and flexible optical solutions becomes paramount. The XPO module addresses these challenges by combining advanced thermal management, reconfigurability, and compliance with industry standards, making it an ideal choice for next-generation AI networking.
