A group of network, semiconductor, and optical companies formed the LPO MSA to develop the network equipment and optical module specifications required to implement a wide ecosystem of interoperable LPO solutions.


These specifications address the industry challenges of reducing power consumption, cost, and latency while improving the reliability of high-speed optical interconnections.
Accelink, AMD, Arista, Broadcom, Cisco, Eoptolink, Hisense, Innolight, Intel, MACOM, NVIDIA, and Semtech are founding members of LPO MSA.


The initial goal of MSA was to optimize optical interconnection with LPO modules at both ends of the link. The LPO MSA specification will define electrical and optical requirements to ensure interoperability between network equipment and optical module suppliers.


"There is an urgent need to reduce the network power consumption of artificial intelligence and other high-performance applications," said Mark Nowell, Chairman of LPO MSA. "LPO greatly reduces the power consumption of modules and systems, while maintaining pluggable interfaces, providing customers with the economy and flexibility required for large-scale deployment."
