Optical Circuit Switch

Enable new AI architectures with the Optical Circuit Switch (OCS)

The OCS optimizes data center networks by minimizing electrical switches and optical-electrical-optical (OEO) conversions, resulting in significant cost savings, reduced power consumption, and improved latency for GPU connections.

Scalable for All Network Sizes

Design AI networks with a solution that is both energy and cost-efficient using OCS architectures. Simplify your network with faster processing and configuration choices.

Available in a range of configurations, including 64x64 to 320x320 and 512x512.

Applications: 

  • Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning front-end and back-end interconnect fabrics 
  • Replaces traditional OEO packet switches 

Key Features: 

  • All-optical switching fabric
  • Based on proven digital liquid crystal technology
  • Ultra-high reliability
