[{"type":"text","content":" SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nLumentum Holdings Inc. (“Lumentum”), a global leader in optical and photonic technology, today announced several live technology and product demonstrations at ECOC, the European Conference on Optical Communications, reinforcing the company’s focus on enabling AI-driven data centers and the world’s largest communications networks. Visit Lumentum’s stand #C2421 at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark from September 29 - October 1.\n\n\nLumentum’s cutting-edge photonics and laser chip technologies drive the backbone of global network infrastructure. From optical transceivers within data centers to DCI links, long-haul transmission systems, subsea cables, and edge networks, our solutions deliver the scalability, ultra-fast connectivity, and reliability required to support today’s most demanding applications.\n\n\nDuring the exhibition, Lumentum will showcase multiple live demonstrations:\n\n\nELSFP Transceivers for CPO Architectures\n\n\nLumentum is showcasing its development of external laser source (ELS) modules in the ELSFP pluggable form factor, designed to advance co-packaged optics (CPO) architectures in high-bandwidth environments such as hyperscale data centers and AI clusters. The demonstration highlights pluggable modules incorporating Lumentum’s ultra-high-power (UHP) 1310 nm lasers, enabling next-generation switches and AI processors with integrated optical connectivity. By separating the laser source from the optical engine and placing it at the system faceplate, these modules improve thermal management and reliability, while their design enhances serviceability and modularity.\n\n\nThe ELSFP form factor provides higher system density, lower thermal loads, and improved lifetime performance, all while maintaining standards compliance. This product is expected to be sampling in calendar Q1 2026.\n\n\n1.6T DR8 TRO OSFP Transceiver for Cloud and AI Applications\n\n\nLumentum is also demonstrating its 1.6T DR8 TRO OSFP pluggable transceiver module, which provides 8x200 Gbps data connectivity over 500 meters of single-mode fiber optics targeting hyperscale Cloud and AI applications. Its TRO or “Transmit-Retimed Optical” design offers a significantly lower power dissipation compared to a Fully Retimed Optical (FRO) transceiver module. The product leverages internal Lumentum manufacturin...
