Will the race for next-generation optical modules avoid a winner-takes-all outcome?
Amid the explosive expansion of AI computing power, the optical interconnect sector has not evolved into a 'winner-takes-all' market. According to the latest report from Zheshang Securities, six technological approaches—silicon photonics, LPO, LRO, NPO, CPO, and TFLN—are coexisting over the long term and collaborating based on specific application scenarios. While CPO is widely regarded as the ultimate solution, commercialization challenges remain; NPO has already become the dominant implementation path in China; and TFLN is quietly carving out a high-end niche segment, with industry value rapidly shifting toward upstream optical chips and advanced packaging.
