800G AOC Active Optical Cable Overview

C-LIGHT 800G AOC active optical cables are designed for high-bandwidth short-distance connections in modern data center and high-performance computing environments. By integrating optical transceiver technology directly into a cable assembly, 800G AOC provides a compact interconnect solution for high-density network architectures.

The product family supports 800G connectivity through QSFP-DD and OSFP interfaces and uses 850nm multimode optical transmission over OM3 fiber. Standard configurations cover 1m to 30m, while breakout versions allow one 800G interface to connect with multiple lower-speed interfaces for flexible network architectures.

The 800G AOC series is intended for applications where high bandwidth, simplified cabling, short transmission distance, and efficient rack-level or data-center-level interconnection are required.

800G AOC Active Optical Cable Applications

AI Data Center Networks

800G AOCs can provide high-bandwidth optical connections between switches and computing infrastructure in AI-oriented data centers.

GPU Cluster Interconnects

High-performance GPU clusters require large volumes of high-speed connections. 800G AOC provides a compact option for short optical links within these architectures.

High-Density Switch Connections

The cable assembly can connect high-speed switch ports while reducing the need to separately install optical modules and fiber patch cables.

Rack-Level Interconnection

Short 1m to 30m cable configurations are well suited to connections between equipment positioned within the same rack or adjacent racks.

Data Center Spine-Leaf Networks

800G AOC solutions can be deployed for short optical connections between high-speed spine and leaf network equipment.

HPC Infrastructure

High-performance computing systems can use 800G AOCs to establish high-throughput connections between compute and networking resources.

Cloud Computing Infrastructure

Cloud data centers can use active optical cables for high-density short-reach interconnects between high-speed networking devices.

Breakout Network Architectures

800G breakout configurations allow a single high-speed port to be connected with multiple lower-speed ports, supporting flexible network scaling.
