ENET Releases OSFP224 Optical Transceiver for Next-Gen Data Centers and AI Applications
ALISO VIEJO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ENET, a member of the Network Infrastructure division of NSI Industries, has introduced its new 1.6T DR8 OSFP224 optical transceiver. This solution is designed for the latest AI, high-performance computing (HPC), and hyperscale data center environments using 224G electrical signaling.
The ENET 1.6T DR8 OSFP224 offers 1.6 terabits per second of total throughput over eight 200G PAM4 electrical lanes. Built for high-density switching and GPU-driven AI clusters, it supports scalable interconnects for spine, leaf, and accelerator topologies, ensuring strong signal integrity and low error rates over parallel single-mode fiber.
With its OSFP224 form factor, this transceiver keeps pace with evolving switch and accelerator technologies supporting 200G/Lambda interfaces. It helps data center operators move toward higher switch capacities, denser port counts, and better power efficiency.
Key Features
- 1.6Tb/s aggregate data rate
- 8 x 200G PAM4 electrical lanes
- DR8 parallel single-mode fiber interface
- OSFP224 form factor supporting 224G electrical signaling
- Hardware supports InfinBand or Ethernet Protocol
- Designed for AI, HPC, and hyperscale data center fabrics
Jason Barrette, VP of Sales and Operations at ENET, said:
As AI models grow larger and clusters become more complex, networks need to offer consistent, high-speed performance,
“Our 1.6T DR8 OSFP224 is designed for demanding GPU interconnects and advanced switching environments, where bandwidth, density, and reliability are crucial for maximizing computing power.”
Built-in digital diagnostics via CMIS 5.3 allow users to monitor optical power, temperature, voltage, and other performance metrics in real time, making it easier to manage large-scale networks proactively.
