Eoptolink Technology has expanded its product portfolio to meet the new market of optical transceiver modules operating in environments using immersion cooling.

The Eoptolink EOLO-138HG-5H-SYMR is an optical transceiver for the 800G OSFP DR8, which can be completely immersed in a 2-phase liquid cooling environment. The EOLO-138HG-02-SYMR is an 800G OSFP DR8+. This transceiver has fiber optic tail fibers that can be connected to non flooded infrastructure. Immersion cooling solutions are a growing niche market as they significantly reduce the energy required to cool data center equipment, thereby lowering operating costs. At the same time, the working temperature of network devices and their sub components is lower, which prolongs their service life and reduces the failure rate.

"We are delighted to showcase our 800G OSFP DR8 module for immersion cooling at OFC," said Supriyo Dey, Vice President of Business Development at Eoptolink Technology. As the growing demand for computing power drives power consumption and cooling in data centers, server and GPU infrastructure is infiltrating immersive cooling. Immersive cooling is not a new technology, but now may be a good time to break through.


In the past few years, data centers and artificial intelligence/ML optical devices have been driven by cost per bit reduction, which has led to the widespread adoption of unsealed design methods. But these methods are not suitable for immersion cooling environments. "We had to redesign our optical solution from scratch," said Dirk Lutz, an engineer at Eoptolink Technology. We have redesigned the optical engine and solved technical challenges while maintaining cost parity. Now, we are proud to be able to achieve immersive cooling for 800G interconnect applications.


The on-site demonstration of the OSFP 800G DR8 module will be held at Eoptolink booth # 3127 at OFC 2024 in San Diego, California.
