The XPO offers a single-module bandwidth of up to 12. 8Tbps (64 channels × 200Gbps), integrates liquid cooling technology, supports power consumption exceeding 400W, and achieves a switching capacity of 204. CITIC Securities stated that Arista, in collaboration with over 45 industry partners, officially released the eXtra-dense Pluggable Optics (XPO) white paper, which proposes a new standard for pluggable optical modules for next-generation AI data centers. The report from CITIC Securities Research stated that with the rapid upgrade and iteration of. CITIC Securities has noted that the evolution of AI computing clusters is transitioning from a mere aggregation of computing power to a competitive arena centered on network efficiency. XPO, a new-generation pluggable optical. The data center interconnect (DCI) industry chain is undergoing a profound restructuring: the AI era imposes stringent requirements on DCI—high density, high bandwidth, low latency, and high reliability—spurring an explosive surge in demand for high‑speed coherent optical modules and high‑density.
