POET to Demonstrate Leading-Edge Optical Engines for AI Market at CIOE 2024

TORONTO and SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- POET Technologies Inc. (“POET” or the “Company”) (TSX Venture: PTK; NASDAQ: POET), the designer and developer of the POET Optical Interposer™, Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) and light sources for the data center, tele-communication and AI markets, today announced that it will be showcasing live demonstrations of its leading-edge optical products at the 2024 China International Optoelectronic Expo (CIOE) from September 11-13.

POET is scheduled to feature products designed for the rapidly accelerating AI systems and hyperscale data center markets. They include:

  • 800G 2xFR4 OSFP module reference design with POET’s newly released 400G transmit engine and fully qualified 800G receive engine; and
  • 200G/lane transmit and receive optical engines for use in 800G and 1.6T optical modules.

Dr. Suresh Venkatesan, POET’s Chairman and CEO, and Dr. Mo Jinyu, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Asia, will lead a team of engineers and executives representing the Company at the exhibition. POET has already scheduled several customer and supplier meetings as the industry shows its eagerness for innovations such as the products built from the POET Optical Interposer™ platform technology.

“CIOE is an essential conference for POET. In previous years, our attendance has led to some of our most important customer relationships, and we expect this year’s event will open more doors for the Company. Customers appreciate the versatility of the Optical Interposer platform, the ease of engineering POET’s optical engines into modules and the resulting cost and performance advantages. There is also a growing recognition that POET’s approach to chip-scale integration may be indispensable to meeting the speed and bandwidth requirements of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in the AI server and hyperscale data center markets,” said Dr. Suresh Venkatesan, POET Chairman & Chief Executive Officer.

CIOE is the largest optoelectronics conference in the world and is expected to host 120,000 attendees from more than 30 countries. The 25th edition of the show will be held at the Shenzhen World Exhibition and Convention Center. POET will be stationed at Booth 11B59, a space it will share with Super Photonics (SPX), its joint venture based in Xiamen, China. SPX will showcase production-ready optical engines that are expected to be in the marketplace before the end of the year.
