Marvell is demonstrating its co-packaged optics platform at @ECOC_Exhibition, including a 102.4 Tbps capable CPO implementation built on class-leading silicon photonics. The physics driving CPO adoption are straightforward. As per-lane speeds in scale-up fabrics increase, the distance over which signals can travel over passive copper falls. AI pods spanning multiple racks require longer interconnect distances than copper can support. CPO brings optical elements directly into the package alongside the IC, reducing distance, improving performance, and lowering power consumption. The demonstration at booth 2002 showcases 200G per lane with aggregate bandwidth in multiples of 6.4 Tbps, alongside detachable ELSFPs for rapid laser replacement and simplified manufacturability. #ECOC26# #ECOCExhibition#
