Eoptolink Introduces the NX200 and NX300 Series at OFC 2026

Eoptolink Technology Inc., Ltd., a leader in advanced optical interconnect solutions, made a significant announcement at the OFC 2026 event, unveiling its innovative Optical Circuit Switch (OCS) products, the NX200 and NX300. These cutting-edge solutions are designed to address the challenges of evolving AI workloads, which demand scalable and efficient network architectures.

As artificial intelligence models grow to trillions of parameters, the need for robust network infrastructure has become crucial. Traditional electrical packet switch (EPS) networks often struggle with performance bottlenecks, especially at the spine-layer switches that are integral to their architecture. To tackle this issue, Eoptolink proposes a novel approach by introducing OCS, replacing the spine-layer EPS switches to enhance overall network throughput. This innovation is pivotal for scaling AI clusters, providing more efficient data flows among thousands of GPUs.

The NX200 and NX300 models stand out with their capacity to support 140 and 320 ports, respectively. These designs cater to varied scales of AI network requirements, positioning Eoptolink’s offerings strategically in the burgeoning market for AI-driven computing solutions. Central to the efficacy of these systems is Eoptolink's proprietary MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) mirrors, which direct light beams to form configurable optical pathways between points in the network. This breakthrough technology eliminates the need for bandwidth-consuming optical-electrical-optical (O-E-O) conversions, resulting in significant benefits such as:

• - Reduced overall power consumption, making networking more energy-efficient.
• - Enhanced and consistent latency management, ensuring faster data transmission.
• - Improved GPU utilization, subsequently leading to shorter training cycles for AI models.

Eoptolink’s commitment to open networking is exemplified by the NX series being powered by the Eoptolink OCS Operating System, which adheres to the SONiC-compliant platform. As an active participant in the Open Compute Project (OCP), Eoptolink is dedicated to advancing the development and standardization of OCS technology. This aligns with the company’s mission to innovate and lead in the optical interconnect domain.

James Zhang, Director of Business Development at Eoptolink, stated, “Introducing OCS solutions like the NX series into AI clusters opens the door to a variety of new network architectures. By circumventing the latency and power consumption risks of classical multi-tier electrical switching, OCS facilitates quicker training cycles and a substantial increase in GPU utilization for our customers.”

During the OFC 2026 exhibition in Los Angeles, attendees can visit Eoptolink’s booth #1211 to explore the NX200 and NX300 OCS products firsthand. Eoptolink will also be showcasing their advanced optical transceiver solutions, including the 12.8T XPO, 6.4T NPO, and various series of optical transceivers designed for 400G and 200G applications. This comprehensive display underscores Eoptolink’s extensive portfolio and dedication to enhancing connectivity within data center and telecom networks.

With a dedicated focus on research and development, Eoptolink Technology is committed to delivering top-tier optical solutions for AI/ML clusters, Cloud Data Centers, and high-speed telecommunications. The company continues to expand its influence globally, providing innovative technologies that empower the connectivity demands of modern industries.
