Chinese maker of high-speed optical transceivers connecting servers and switches inside AI data centers.
Chinese maker of high-speed optical transceivers connecting servers and switches inside AI data centers.
Sells optical modules, the plug-in parts that carry data between servers and switches, to a small number of cloud and networking customers that qualify suppliers over many months. Volume depends on cloud companies' AI spending and on being chosen at each new speed generation. It is a close peer of Innolight.
In one line: China's Coherent/Lumentum for AI datacenter optics.
Moat: narrow (scale, process know-how, customer qualification). Qualified into major hyperscaler AI networking supply chains; scale and yield matter more than patents here.
Headquarters: Wuhan, China · Founded: 2006 · Employees: 8,537
