Why Are 800G Optical Modules Important To AI?

Image
  In today's fast-paced world, the need for high-speed data transmission has reached unprecedented levels. The emergence of AI applications and large models has made computing power a key infrastructure in the AI ​​industry. As the demand for faster communications continues to increase, high-speed optical modules have become an important component of artificial intelligence servers. This article takes an in-depth look at the evolution of 800G optical modules and their huge potential in the era of artificial intelligence.   01  The Evolution Of 800G Optical Modules The optical module is responsible for the task of converting photoelectric signals in network connections. It is responsible for converting electrical signals into optical signals at the sending end, and then converting the optical signals into electrical signals at the receiving end after transmission through optical fibers.   With the development and integration of optoelectronic devices, their performanc...

When Will PAM4 And Coherent DSP Prices Drop?

Image
Recently, LightCounting, a market research organization in the optical communications industry, pointed out in its market forecast for optical communications IC chipsets that in 2023, sales of PAM4 chips will exceed US$1.1 billion, while sales of coherent DSP chipsets will drop to US$800 million. The sales gap between these two types of DSP chipsets is expected to widen from 2024 to 2026.   The main driver of market recovery in 2024-2026 will be the deployment of 800G PAM4 optics in artificial intelligence clusters. LightCounting expects sales growth of PAM4 optics to slow down in 2027-2029, with first volume deployments of linear drive solutions (LPO and/or CPO) negatively impacting sales of retiming optical modules.   The recovery of the wider market, including coherent DWDM DSPs, is expected to be slower in 2024-2026, but LightCounting does not foresee any slowdown in 2027-2029, and by 2028-2029, coherent DSP market share will gradually recover.   LightCounting‘s forec...
