GIGALIGHT Upgrades Optical Transceiver Sealing Tech for Liquid Environments, Covering 10G-800G

August 26, 2024. Shenzhen, China. – Since launching its immersion liquid-cooled optical transceiver product line in July 2021, GIGALIGHT has developed a comprehensive immersion liquid cooling product line, with product applications covering the 5G fronthaul product line and the latest 400G and 800G product lines for AI computing power applications.

In response to the urgent demand for efficient cooling solutions in AI computing power data centers, Gigalight has developed highly reliable and cost-effective immersion liquid-cooled optical transceivers. They use direct immersion liquid cooling and optimized optical device sealing design to effectively prevent coolant from entering the optical path, and thereby eliminating the negative impact of liquids on the optical route.

Gigalight’s immersion liquid-cooled interconnect products are mainly based on unique technology and superb signal integrity. The product design fully integrates material compatibility, mechanics, optics, pressurization, signal integrity (SI) simulations and comprehensive tests, The optimized sealing design of optical components and engines ensures that all products undergo rigorous 100% immersion testing before leaving the factory to verify their suitability and durability in both spray-type and fully immersed liquid-cooled environments.

Currently, these products have been successfully deployed in a variety of cooling liquids, including 3M and domestic fluorinated liquids, silicone oil, and PAO, proving their broad applicability and outstanding compatibility. As of now, Gigalight has become one of the global leaders in the field of liquid cooling interconnection in the world. The immersion liquid cooling optical transceiver products are as follows:
