Lightmatter forms consortium to seize CPO discourse power. Connects major manufacturers like Celestica, Dell, and Quanta to establish interoperability standards needed for next-generation AI systems. * 2026.03.18 * 03:00 * Industrial and Commercial Times, Li Juanping Silicon photonics startup Lightmatter, in collaboration with partners including Celestica, Corning, Dell, Flex, Foxconn Interconnect Technology, Hyve Solutions, Keysight, Qualcomm, and Quanta Cloud Technology, has launched the Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) Reference Architecture Initiative within the Open Compute Project (OCP). This initiative aims to promote open specifications and interoperability standards required for next-generation AI systems. With the rapid expansion of generative AI models, data centers face bottlenecks in bandwidth, power consumption, and spatial density in internal electrical interconnections, making CPO a crucial technological direction for next-generation AI infrastructure. Compared to traditional pluggable optical modules, CPO significantly enhances transmission bandwidth by tightly integrating photonic components into silicon chips and system ends, while also improving power efficiency and rack space utilization. It is regarded as a key solution for hyperscale cloud providers building AI clusters. The industry believes that moving CPO from technical validation to large-scale...
