Optical modules convert electrical signals into light to move data quickly and reliably in AI systems, enabling fast and smooth data processing. SCALE CPO solution is the industry's first OCI MSA capable platform and built with GF's proven silicon photonics technology MALTA, N., May 4, 2026 – GlobalFoundries (Nasdaq: GFS) (GF) today announced the introduction of its SCALE™ optical module solution for co-packaged optics (CPO). GF's SCALE. Although co-packaged optics (CPO) and on-board optics (OBO) have been proposed to increase bandwidth density, these approaches introduce significant challenges in field serviceability, scalability, and manufacturability, making them difficult to deploy widely in hyperscale environments. Understanding their role is key to building efficient, scalable AI systems. With support for both coarse and dense wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM. SAN JOSE, CA, March 16, 2026 –– POET Technologies Inc.
