  • Liquid cooling is the next optical module

    Liquid cooling is the next optical module

    Liquid cooling is a critical enabler for the next generation of high-performance optical modules, allowing the industry to overcome the thermal and power delivery constraints of traditional air cooling. You use this technology to cool parts when air cooling is not enough. Good heat control gives you steady performance and helps keep electronics. But now, advanced applications such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are taking high data processing demands to the next level — and legacy cooling solutions for I/O modules may no longer be enough. According to IDC, the global liquid-cooled data center market will exceed USD 20 billion by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25%. At the Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit in October, a new, micro. While the industry-standard OSFP (Octal Small Form-Factor Pluggable) module has successfully enabled 400Gbps, 800Gbps, and 1. 6Tbps optical pluggable modules, it is limited to 32 modules per Rack Unit (RU), typically requiring 2 RUs to achieve 102.
