NVIDIA Moves Co-Packaged Optics to Volume Manufacturing with Hyperscaler Commitments
NVIDIA's shift of Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) from a future feature to volume manufacturing is driven by hyperscalers already committing at scale. This move is expected to compress the entire photonics adoption curve, as power constraints force the integration of optics into the compute stack.
So What
The upstream supply chain for InP capacity and advanced packaging is now the critical bottleneck for AI compute infrastructure.
