Discover how phase-change materials and silicon photonics enable low-power, nanosecond optical circuit switching to scale high-bandwidth AI cluster networks.
With the rapid growth of artificial intelligence computing, data centers now need much more bandwidth. The physical limitations of traditional copper cable connections are becoming increasingly apparent as transmission speeds rise.
The latest industry forecasts indicate that by 2030, the total size of the global optical path switch market is expected to exceed $8 billion, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 30% between 2026 and 2030.
Faced with a surge in orders, leading global manufacturers are increasing production line speeds and shortening delivery cycles. However, the real challenge of this growth goes beyond “can we deliver orders on time?”
Explore the rapid growth of AI scale-up switch chips powering hyperscale data centers, Ethernet ASICs, and CPO-driven next-gen networking architecture.
