Data Center Interconnection in the 800G Era: Why is AOC a Key Player?
AI big data models, cloud computing, and massive data exchange are propelling data centers into the era of 800G high-speed interconnection. Traditional copper cables can't handle the load, discrete optical modules are too power-intensive, and cabling is messy and space-consuming—800G AOC active optical cables are becoming the true game-changer.
🔥 Three Major Pain Points in the 800G Era
Bandwidth Explosion: GPU clusters and east-west traffic surge, 400G is simply not enough.
Extreme Power Consumption: Traditional solutions suffer from severe heat generation, resulting in persistently high PUE.
Caching Nightmare: Heavy copper cables cause cabling management breakdowns in high-density data centers.
✨ Why is 800G AOC a Key Player?
800G full-speed transmission, supporting distances up to 100 meters, covering most data center scenarios.
Lower power consumption, saving 30%+ more power than ordinary optical module solutions, an essential for green data centers.
Lightweight fiber optic cable, easy to bend, high density, instantly clean and tidy cabling in the server room.
Plug and play, pre-integrated, fast deployment, fewer failures, and easier maintenance.
🖥 Core Application Scenarios
✅ AI intelligent computing clusters (GPU high-speed interconnect)
✅ Leaf-Spine architecture backbone links
✅ Distributed storage & HPC high-performance computing
✅ High-density interconnect for hyperscale data centers
Simply put:
800G AOC is not just a cable, but the high-speed nerve center of an 800G data center. It will definitely be the star of the next wave of computing power upgrades.
