1.6T OSFP DR8 Optical Transceiver: Powering Next-Generation AI and Ethernet Applications

As data demands skyrocket, especially in large-scale artificial intelligence (AI) workloads and high-density data center environments, the need for faster, scalable, and more efficient optical interconnects becomes critical. Optech is proud to launch the 1.6T OSFP DR8 Optical Transceiver, a future-ready solution tailored for 1.6 Terabit Ethernet and advanced AI infrastructure.

1.6T OSFP DR8

Fully Compatible with NVIDIA Ecosystem

Our 1.6T OSFP DR8 module is engineered to be fully compatible with NVIDIA’s MMS4A00 transceiver, ensuring seamless deployment in InfiniBand Quantum-X800 QM3400 systems. This level of compatibility allows enterprise customers and hyperscale cloud providers to deploy cutting-edge networking with confidence, performance, and stability.

Key Features:

  • Form Factor: OSFP (Octal Small Form-factor Pluggable)
  • Speed: 1.6 Tbps aggregate throughput (8 x 200G PAM4)
  • Reach: DR8 specification supports up to 500m over single-mode fiber (SMF)
  • Connector: MPO-16 or equivalent
  • Compliance: IEEE 802.3df, OSFP MSA
  • Compatibility: NVIDIA MMS4A00, Quantum-X800 QM3400, and future AI platforms

Ideal for AI and Hyperscale Data Centers

The 1.6T OSFP DR8 transceiver is tailored to address the extreme bandwidth and low-latency demands of today’s:

  • Large Language Model (LLM) Training Clusters
  • AI Supercomputing Infrastructure
  • Hyperscale Cloud Data Centers
  • 1.6T Ethernet Spine-and-Leaf Architectures

With its high-speed performance and robust interoperability, this transceiver ensures data-intensive environments operate at peak capacity without bottlenecks.

Future-Proof Scalability

Designed with next-generation workloads in mind, this 1.6T transceiver enables:

  • Upgrades from 800G to 1.6T seamlessly
  • Reduced optical lane complexity with 8x200G PAM4 signaling
  • Lower power consumption per Gbit
  • Maximized rack and switch port utilization

Whether you’re a data center operator scaling to hundreds of thousands of nodes or an AI infrastructure leader building next-gen compute clusters, Optech’s 1.6T OSFP DR8 offers the speed, compatibility, and reliability you need.
