With the rapid development of AI computing power and the continuous surge in data center traffic, 400G networks are gradually reaching their performance bottlenecks. To adapt to the needs of high-density, low-latency computing network upgrades, ETU-LINK Optical Communication has launched a pre-launch campaign for new products, showcasing two self-developed 800G high-speed optical modules based on ...
With the rapid expansion of AI computing clusters and large data centers, the optical communication industry is accelerating its iteration from 400G to 800G large-scale commercial use and 1.6T small-batch trial production. The core of upgrading high-speed optical modules lies not in simply increasing the speed, but in the technological innovation of core optoelectronic materials. In 800G/1.6T tran...
With the rapid development of cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and 5G networks, the demand for bandwidth in data centers is growing exponentially. 400G optical modules, with their superior performance, are gradually becoming a core component of next-generation high-speed networks. Among numerous optical module brands, ETU-LINK stands out with its core competitiveness in high cost-effectiv...
In data center and communication network construction, optical modules, as core components for photoelectric signal conversion, directly determine equipment compatibility and transmission performance through their interface types. Correctly understanding and distinguishing various commonly used interfaces is essential knowledge for network engineers and procurement personnel. I. By Package Interfa...
Ⅰ.400G Upgrades for Data Centers: Choosing the Right Packaging Is Key Driven by technologies such as AI, cloud computing, and 5G, the global data volume is growing exponentially. The global market size for 400G optical transceivers reached $1.13 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow to $3.61 billion by 2035. Meanwhile, CignalAI predicts that total shipments of 400G and above high-speed data com...
In data centers, enterprise networks, and even high-performance computing clusters, high-speed interconnect cables are indispensable "capillaries." In short-distance interconnect scenarios, a pair of cables, each with its unique advantages, almost dominates the connection from inside the server rack to adjacent racks—these are DAC (Direct Connector Copper Cable) and AOC (Active Optical Cable). Oft...
The explosive growth in demand for AI computing power is pushing data centers to a critical inflection point for upgrades. Looking ahead to 2026, the battle between 400G and 800G optical modules is no longer just a race for speed, but a generational choice concerning power consumption, cost, and future architecture. I. Technical Architecture: The Transition from 8×50G to 8×100G The 400G optical mo...
Ⅰ. "Dual-channel" transmission and reception, without interference. Bidirectional over Single Fiber ( BiDi ) means that data transmission and reception can be completed simultaneously within a single optical fiber, unlike ordinary optical fibers which use two separate wires for transmission and reception. The core principle of this technology is the combination of wavelength multiplexing and trans...
I. Core Principles of Wavelength Switching Relying on tunable optical devices and intelligent network management for dual control, seamless wavelength switching can be achieved without replacing hardware or interrupting services, ensuring transmission rate and link stability throughout the entire process. The core formula to remember first is c = f × λ. Since the speed of light c is constant, as t...
As AI large-scale models accelerate their iteration, computing power clusters are moving from "thousands of cards" to "tens of thousands of cards" and "hundreds of thousands of cards." As the "blood vessels" connecting computing power, the internal hierarchical relationships of optical communication are becoming increasingly crucial. However, optical devices, optical modules, and optical engines a...
In the field of optical communications, tunable DWDM optical modules are gradually becoming a key component for interconnecting backbone networks and data centers. What makes them so special? Traditional DWDM optical modules employ a "fixed wavelength" design, meaning each module can only transmit one specific ITU-T standard wavelength. This implies that a dense wavelength division multiplexing (D...
In a corner of the data center server room, rows of optical modules are working silently. They look almost identical, but their internal structures are vastly different. Some are responsible for connections of a few meters between server racks, while others bear the heavy responsibility of spanning tens of kilometers across a city. This difference is the most fundamental dividing line in the field...
