adopt 400G optical transceivers as a fundamental technology. Software as a Service (SaaS) is a primary

offering that will leverage 400 G optical transceivers in the mega data center.”

High-speed serial transceivers form the backbone of networks. Communications, servers and many

other electronic systems depend on high-speed serial transceivers. Global adoption of the Internet is

driving rapid growth of the mega datacenter. Data centers support online commerce, streaming video,

social networking, and cloud services.

Leading vendors offer a broad product selection. They are positioned with innovative technology. 400 G

optical module manufacturers address the needs of major networking interconnect equipment vendors

and companies building mega data centers. Leading vendors have taken a leading role in transforming

the data communications and tele-communications equipment market.

The global 400 G optical transceiver market is expected to be at $22.6 billion in 2023 driven by the

availability and cost effectiveness of 100 Gbps, and 400 Gbps devices. Next generation optical transceiver

devices use less power, are less expensive, and are smarter and smaller. The adoption of widespread use

of the 100 Gbps devices, followed by 400 Gbps devices and the vast increases in Internet traffic are core

to helping manage change in the large mega data center and communications interconnect and

infrastructure markets.
