TRx Optical Engine for NPO
The TRx Optical Engine for Near-Packaged Optics (NPO) is a high-density silicon photonics transceiver engine designed to enable next-generation AI networking and high-performance computing systems. By placing the optical engine in close proximity to the switch or compute ASIC, the NPO architecture minimizes high-speed electrical channel losses while significantly improving bandwidth density, signal integrity, and power efficiency.
Our integrated transmit/receive (TRx) optical engine combines high-speed optical transmitters and receivers into a compact, scalable package optimized for next-generation Ethernet and AI interconnects.
