Optical modules convert electrical signals into light to move data quickly and reliably in AI systems, enabling fast and smooth data processing. Introduction: The Rise of AI Elevates Optical Modules to Strategic Importance With the rapid rise of AI technologies, data has become a new production factor. The high-speed, low-latency, and energy-efficient flow of this data requires a robust communication infrastructure. While the industry-standard OSFP (Octal Small Form-Factor Pluggable) module has successfully enabled 400Gbps, 800Gbps, and 1. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) workloads are driving data centers worldwide to upgrade their infrastructure to support massive data transfers and ultra-low-latency communication for GPU clusters.

An optical module is a typically hot-pluggable optical transceiver used in high-bandwidth data communications applications. The form factor and electrical interface are often specified by an interested group using a (MSA). As an essential component of optical fiber communication, optical modules are optoelectronic devices that facilitate the conversion between optical and electrical signals during the transmission process. The tasks and solutions are diverse and range from classic lenses and high-performance lighting modules to innovative solutions such as optical modules for wavefront manipulation.
