  • How much does an LPO optical router cost

    How much does an LPO optical router cost

    According to industry analysis: in an 800G optical module, the BOM cost is about 600-700 US dollars, and the cost of the DSP chip is about 50-70 US dollars. Enter two contenders vying to address these challenges: Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) and Linear Pluggable Optics (LPO). Both of these technologies reduce power consumption and eliminate components in optical modules, which makes them. Although integrating EQ into the Driver and TIA slightly increases the cost of LPO transceivers, LPO solutions still achieve an overall reduction in total system cost. Low Latency: LPO technology eliminates the need for a DSP, reducing a processing step and thus lowering data transmission latency. This advantage is particularly. From a cost perspective, the BOM (Bill of Materials) cost of the DSP in a 400G optical module accounts for about 20-40%.
