Where Light Drives Data

Redefining PCB Technology to enable next-gen AI datacenter hardware.

Unlock the Future of Datacenter Connectivity

01.Transition from copper to optical

Copper interconnects are hitting fundamental limits in bandwidth, density, and power efficiency. To keep up with AI and cloud workloads, systems must transition from electrical traces to embedded optics.

02.Optical PCBs unlock new performance

Optical PCBs (oPCBs) integrate optical waveguides directly into circuit boards. This enables low-loss, high-bandwidth connections that outperform traditional copper at short reach.

03.Optical PCIe interconnects

With optical PCIe links, GPUs and accelerators on the same board can communicate at higher speeds without copper bottlenecks. This boosts AI performance and supports the next generation of datacenter hardware.

04.Scalable beyond datacenters

The advantages of oPCBs extend into communication equipment, laptops, and high-tech devices. Wherever electrical traces fall short, embedded optics provide a scalable, future-proof solution.

Unlock the Future of Datacenter Connectivity

Our optical PCB (oPCB) technology embeds optical waveguides directly into printed circuit boards, creating high-speed communication channels within standard substrates. This approach overcomes the bandwidth and power limits of copper, delivering low-loss, high-density interconnects for next-generation systems. Designed for scalability and reliability, oPCBs bring the performance of photonics into the familiarity of PCB manufacturing.

With our oPCB technology, you’re not just upgrading links – you're unlocking a new class of high-density, high-efficiency compute infrastructure.
