Applied Optoelectronics receives hyper-scale datacentre orders

 $70 million investment in production and R&D facilities starts to pay off

Applied Optoelectronics, a US provider of building blocks for fibre optic networks, has announced that it has received initial orders for its 40 Gbps QSFP+ and 100 Gbps QSFP28 optical transceiver modules from a new hyper-scale datacentre customer.

AOI's 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps optical transceivers are predominantly deployed in intra-datacentre applications and are used for high speed switching and routing connectivity. AOI has invested over $70 million in the last four quarters on production and R&D facilities to enable cost-effective, high volume production for its datacentre and CATV broadband product lines, including in-house laser diode and light engine production.

"After an extensive period of product testing and qualification, we are pleased to have the opportunity to provide our industry-leading products to a new large datacentre customer. The initial orders we have received, totaling more than 10,000 transceivers of various product types, are for delivery over the next couple of quarters, and represent a compelling opportunity to develop a long-term relationship with this new customer," said Thompson Lin, Applied Optoelectronics, founder, president and CEO.
