A recent report by Counterpoint Research forecasts a remarkable surge in the market for Near-Packaged Optics (NPO) and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) solutions, which are expected to be the primary drivers of in-package optical IO technology revenues over the next decade. According to the report, OBO (On-Board Optics), CPO, and NPO solutions are projected to achieve […]
With the widespread adoption of 100G PAM4 modulation technology, current 400G/800G optical modules extensively utilize the 4×100G PAM4 and 8×100G PAM4 architectures. Against this backdrop of technological evolution, traditional 4×25G NRZ schemes (e.g., 100G QSFP28 SR4) or 4×50G PAM4 schemes (e.g., 200G QSFP56 SR4) face three critical challenges: firstly, rate mechanism incompatibility causing link negotiation […]
The global data center industry is poised for sustained expansion driven by escalating investments in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, with worldwide capital expenditures (CAPEX) projected to surpass ＄1 trillion by 2029, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21% over the forecast period. This growth trajectory is underpinned by the proliferation of accelerated servers […]
In the first quarter of 2025, the global data center industry experienced an extraordinary 53% year-over-year surge in capital expenditures (Capex), marking the sixth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. This unprecedented expansion, as reported by Dell’Oro Group, is primarily driven by the relentless demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, especially from hyperscale cloud providers who […]
In modern buildings, be it office buildings or data centers, cables weave through floors like a “nervous system.” Among them, the Riser cable, which is designed specifically for vertical channels, plays a vital role in ensuring building fire safety. What is a Riser Cable? A Riser cable (compliant with UL 1666 standards) is a communication […]
Cisco transceivers can be classified according to different standards. Depending on transmission rates, the transceivers are classified into 400G, 100G, 40G, 25G, 10G, 1G, and 100M transceivers. Depending on modes, the transceivers are classified into single-mode and multi-mode transceivers. Depending on encapsulation types, the transceivers are classified into: QSFP-DD, QSFP, CPAK, GBIC,CFP, CFP2, CXP, SFP28, […]
