LRO, LPO, and Silicon Photonics
LRO solutions are expected to be lower risk for cable applications, like Active Optical Cables (AOCs), where the entire fiber infrastructure and both transceiver ends ship together as one integral solution,
LPO-MSA
An LPO (Linear Pluggable Optics) solution offers considerable power savings for optical interconnect by removing the digital signal processing (DSP) function from the pluggable optical module.
