Founded in 2006, GIGALIGHT is an enterprise with outstanding brand influence in the field of global optical communications, positioned as a technology innovator and market explorer in the field of open optical networks.
GIGALIGHT's business focuses on developing decoupled optical network modules and subsystems to reduce CAPEX and OPEX for data centers and telecom operators. Since its establishment, the company has actively cooperated with global operators to realize the interconnection of optical networks, and has been widely recognized as a veritable advocate and leader of open optical interconnection middleware.
In recent years, GIGALIGHT has focused on the research and development and promotion of open DCI BOX transmission systems, optical switches, 800G pluggable optical modules, and 1.6T/3.2T NPO optical modules, aiming to further promote optical layer openness and interface compatibility in open optical networks, and to realize the grand vision of deploying cost-effective, open middleware and subsystems globally. (Note: the company is the first contributing member of the OpenZR+ MSA.)
The development of GIGALIGHT benefits from more than 300 small and medium-sized customers around the world, who promote the growth of the company and the progress of employees. In order to give back to customers, GIGALIGHT takes the continuous development of new technologies and the creation of ultra-compatible optical network middleware and subsystems for the open optical network as the company's unswerving goal.
To achieve this goal, GIGALIGHT has built a series of technology platforms, including software and hardware design and high-speed signal integrity platform, COB hybrid packaging technology platform, silicon-based optoelectronic chip design and packaging platform, and COM-based computing and management of multi-channel DAC manufacturing platform, as well as a coherent optical communication technology platform with self-developed algorithms, etc. The company has a world-class compatibility testing laboratory in the field of optoelectronics.
