As part of its long-term roadmap, Gemtek has increased its strategic investment in research and development as well as automated manufacturing of high-speed fiber transceiver products. The company is also expanding its fiber transceiver portfolio to serve both AI data centers and telecom transport networks, addressing the industry’s growing demand for scalable, flexible, and sustainable optical solutions.

“As hyperscalers demand faster, more efficient connectivity, our 800G LPO transceiver extends Gemtek’s leadership in pluggable solutions for AI and data center networks,” said James Lee, President, Gemtek. “With our high-volume automated manufacturing facilities, Gemtek is uniquely positioned to deliver reliable, cost-optimized transceivers at scale that will bridge the global supply gap as AI/ML-driven demand accelerates. Partnering with NewPhotonics allows us to bring to market the most advanced LPO solution available today, ensuring we meet both immediate customer needs and the industry’s long-term shift to silicon photonics.”

Leveraging the highly integrated NPG10202 LPO+ silicon photonics PIC, the transceiver will deliver industry-leading power efficiency, minimized latency, and robust performance under real-world network traffic conditions.

“Our collaboration with Gemtek is strong validation that the ecosystem recognizes LPO+ for today’s 800G and the step up to 1.6T LPO optical connectivity,” said Doron Tal, SVP & GM of Optical Connectivity at NewPhotonics. “Working with global leaders like Gemtek accelerates adoption of our LPO+ chips, which bring optical signal processing directly onto the photonic IC and redefines how data centers will scale interconnect for AI.”
