Adtran sets intra-data center benchmark with all-new ultra-low-power LiteWave800™ LPO module10.3.2026 15:00:00 EET | Press release
Adtran today launched LiteWave800™, an ultra‑low‑power 800Gbit/s DR8 linear pluggable optics (LPO) module engineered to help data centers address the power, latency, thermal and bandwidth demands of modern AI and machine-learning (ML) workloads. As GPU clusters grow and short-reach links scale across dense server racks, operators need 800Gbit/s optics that deliver higher capacity within strict power and cooling limits. LiteWave800™ answers this challenge with a fully re-engineered architecture that significantly reduces energy consumption. Operating at just 1pJ/bit and consuming only 0.8W, it establishes a new power class for 800Gbit/s optics, delivering far lower energy per bit than today’s first‑generation LPOs and mainstream DSP-based pluggable transceivers. Adtran will showcase LiteWave800™ at OFC 2026 in Los Angeles from March 17 to 19. This press release features multimedia.
