Report: Hon Hai has begun early shipments of all-optical CPO cabinets to NVIDIA and significantly raised its shipment targets.
According to reports, Hon Hai Group's all-optical CPO switch cabinets have been delivered to NVIDIA ahead of schedule, with supply so tight that even display units are completely sold out. The shipment target has been significantly revised upward from the initial goal of over 10,000 units by 2026 to exceeding 50,000 units between 2026 and 2027. Given that the gross margin for CPO is in the double digits, far surpassing traditional contract manufacturing, the company forecasts this business will become a core driver for upgrading Hon Hai's profit structure.
