The co-packaged optics and 400 Gb/s lanes are exactly the kind of infrastructure move that actually scales AI without drowning in copper and power costs.
That USFP optics spec looks like the kind of engineering move that actually scales AI factories without choking on copper.
America's tech edge just got stronger. Faster optics, less waste, more American jobs coming from it.
USFP optics at 400 Gb/s per lane looks like the practical step that finally makes AI factories scale without the copper bottleneck.
Co-packaged optics is the exact kind of engineering move that actually scales AI instead of just talking about it.
USFP optics hitting 400 Gb/s per lane while cutting power looks like the kind of incremental breakthrough that actually scales AI factories instead of just promising to.
