Overview
AI & DC 800G HYBRID Optical Interconnection Innovation Solution replaces conventional 800G OSFP AOC with 800G OSFP HYBRID VR8-AOC, and traditional 800G OSFP DR8 optical modules with 800G OSFP DR8 PHO silicon photonics modules. Unlike standard full-DSP optical modules, the HYBRID series integrates DSPs on only half of the channels, thus delivering substantial improvements in power consumption and latency reduction.
It can be said that HYBRID optical modules and active optical cables draw on and adopt the industry’s general design methodology of LPO/LRO. Nevertheless, from the perspective of strict system signal alignment, HYBRID offers a more advanced design strategy. The equivalent formula for the HYBRID design methodology can be simply interpreted as:HYBRID = (LTO + LRO) / 2
Boasting high compatibility, low loss, and flexible deployment, this solution caters to the high-density and low-cost interconnection requirements of AI data centers, and achieves dual optimization of transmission performance and cost-effectiveness.
Key Products & Highlights
800G OSFP HYBRID VR8-AOC （Replaces Conventional 800G OSFP AOC）
- Maximum power consumption is less than 9 W, representing a power reduction of approximately 20%–25% compared with traditional DSP solutions.
- With KP4-FEC enabled, the transmission distance can reach up to 30 m over OM3 multi-mode fiber (MMF) and 50 m over OM4 multi-mode fiber (MMF).
- Link latency is reduced by around 50% relative to conventional DSP solutions.
- Superior Signal Quality: Pre-FEC bit error rate (BER) reaches E-7/E-8 level.
