We’re excited to join the @OiForum Interoperability Demo at #ECOC2026! Visit booth 2126 to see live demos of two industry-first milestones from our Passage L-series CPO platform: ➡️First BiDi CPO chip driving 400 Gb/s bandwidth per fiber (4 wavelength Tx + 4 wavelength Rx), launched in 2025 with 800Gb/s of DWDM bandwidth per fiber on 16-wavelengths (8 Tx + 8 Rx). ➡️First 1.6 Tb/s per fiber CPO chip, employing 16-wavelength UniDi DWDM, co-developed with @Qualcomm and launched earlier in 2026.

As AI systems scale, traditional electrical interconnects are becoming a major constraint on performance, power, and density. That’s why Flex has joined a new Open Compute Project initiative led by @LightmatterCo to advance open specifications for co-packaged optics (CPO) in next-generation AI infrastructure. Through deeper ecosystem collaboration, the industry can accelerate interoperability, certification frameworks, and supply chain readiness — all critical to scaling CPO-based systems globally.
