Multi-Wavelength Laser Sources for Scaling Datacenter Capacity
The advent of multiple AI applications is skyrocketing the data center capacity and power consumption. The use of optical engines is essential for reducing the power consumption by shortening electrical interconnects, but they also require scalable laser sources capable of delivering multiple precisely spaced wavelengths. Multi-wavelength external laser sources are required to fulfill this need, along with the development of co-packaged (CPO), optical IOs (OIO), and special silicon photonics engines. Pilot Photonics is developing three different types of sources to address the industry's various needs with their 1. 16-channel Laser Array ELSFP 2. Optical Frequency Comb + Laser Array ELSFP and 3. Multichannel Discrete Laser source offerings. This talk will provide the details of these laser sources and discuss data transmission results.
