OEM partnership to integrate Sivers’ DFB laser arrays into O-Net’s ELSFP optical modules for co-packaged optics
Sivers Semiconductors AB of Kista, Sweden (which supplies RF beam-former ICs for SATCOMs and photonic lasers for AI data centers) has announced a strategic partnership with optical communications device maker O-Net Technologies (Group) Co Ltd of Shenzhen, China to produce high-performance external laser sources, a critical component enabling next-generation AI data center architectures.
O-Net will serve as an OEM partner, integrating Sivers’ distributed feedback (DFB) laser arrays into their range of external laser small-form-factor (ELSFP) optical modules.
The product supports the adoption of co-packaged optics (CPO) in switches, network interface cards and artificial intelligence (AI) applications, leading to significantly reduced power consumption over traditional pluggable transceiver technology, it is reckoned.
“By combining our expertise in high-performance laser solutions with O-Net’s strong presence in optical networking, we can bring next-generation DFB lasers to a broader market,” says Sivers Semiconductors’ CEO Vickram Vathulya.
“This collaboration allows us to deliver higher performance and greater efficiency in optical interconnect applications, addressing the growing need for high-capacity, energy-efficient networking solutions for AIdatacenter deployments.”
