Message: Co-Packaged-Optics very good news

The Co-Packaged Optics Collaboration Joint Development Forum has released the 3.2T Co-packaged Optical (CPO) Module PRD this week.


This PRD describes the requirements to build Optical module targeted to increase network switch density and increase power efficiency.

The CPO module will serve as a building block to enable a lower power solution for a 51.2Tb/s switch, with 16 modules arranged in close proximity to the switch ASIC. 


Two variants of the CPO module are defined in this document, one supporting 400GBASE-DR4 (with a total of 32 Tx/Rx fiber pairs), and one supporting 400GBASE-FR4 (8 Tx/Rx fiber pairs). The document outlines our proposed architectural approach for a 51.2Tb/s switch.

All companies can now engineer a way.
Showdown will happen at OFC 08 – 10 June 2021- Moscone Center, San Francisco.
