POET Technologies, a designer of Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) and light sources for the data center, has expanded its partnership with Luxshare Technology to provide more optical module products targeted at AI network equipment and AI service providers.
Luxshare Tech provides technology for data-communication facilities and enterprise-level products for Tier 1 companies.
After completing the testing of 800G 2xFR4 OSFP modules using POET’s receive optical engines. Luxshare Tech and POET agreed to produce additional types of optical transceiver modules. These modules showed exceptional performance, which prompted Luxshare Tech and POET to adopt a broader range of POET’s optical engines into the Luxshare offerings.
The additional products will include POET’s transmit and receive optical engines for Luxshare’s 400G and 800G pluggable transceivers for single-mode fiber applications. These transceivers will combine POET’s 100G/lane and 200G/lane optical engines with Luxshare Tech's advanced optical module designs. Luxshare Tech will manufacture and sell the optical modules globally.
Also, selected POET optical engines will be integrated into existing Luxshare Tech products that are already on the market.
Besides the 800G 2xFR4 OSFP module, Luxshare Tech is developing a series of DSP-based and linear pluggable optics products for 400G and 800G speeds using POET's optical engines. These multiple projects will generate complete solutions that include transmit and receiver engines that are built on the POET Optical Interposer™ platform technology.
