The COBO web site is finally on and working.
The Consortium for On-Board Optics (COBO) will work to develop a series of specifications to permit the use of board-mounted optical modules in the manufacturing of network switches and servers. The organization will reference industry specifications where possible and develop specifications where required with attention to electrical interfaces, pin-outs, connectors, thermals, etc. for the development of interchangeable and interoperable optical modules that can be mounted onto motherboards and daughtercards.
COBO will have its first face-to-face meeting in Santa Clara, California on April 14, 2015. For more information about COBO and its meetings, please contact us.
