A Faster Future with Linear Pluggable Optics
LPOs are a low-power pluggable module interface that eliminates DSP chips, creating a linear signal path. By simplifying the connection, the LPO reduces cost, latency, and power

Our LPO transceivers support 400G and 800G applications in QSFP and OSFP form factors. They bring all the efficiency and performance benefits of LPO to data center operators, while integrating
Linear Drive Pluggable Optics Linear Drive Pluggable Optics (LPOs) have gained tremendous attention during 2023 and this document attempts to de-mystify the terminology. The focus is on 400G and
By combining a dual-paddle mechanical architecture, integrated liquid-cooling cold plate, clean linear electrical channel, and high-voltage power delivery, XPO dramatically increases optical density while
y are Macom, Semtech and Maxlinear. The main advantages offered by LPO are reduced power consumption and lower system latency due to the absence of the DSP. and reducing the operational
Half-Retimed Linear Optics creates an easier composite channel, allowing greater margin and robustness Shorter electrical Establishing compliant interfaces allows multiple vendors to

3.2 Linear Pluggable Optics (LPO): The Low-Power Challenger LPO technology removes the DSP from the optical module entirely. Instead, it relies on the equalization capabilities of the host
Pluggable Optical Modules: QSFP-DD or OSFP Both variants support all the technical
To address this, Macom and NVIDIA first proposed Linear-drive Pluggable Optics (LPO) in 2022. Its core concept is to remove digital processing units such as DSPs and CDRs from the
