Multicolor lasers for ultrafast data transmission
Enlightra develops mass-manufacturable fingertip-size multicolor lasers enabling ultrafast data communication and optical computing while providing up to 10x improvement in energy efficiency and cost reduction.
Enlightra develops scalable optical interconnects for data centers and AI clusters, using a comb laser engine to provide multiple high-power laser colors for terabit-class links with improved energy efficiency over copper. Their photonics approach targets AI infrastructure needing high bandwidth and scalable interconnects.
Enlightra builds optical interconnects that route data using light to connect processors, boards, and racks. Their comb laser engine emits dozens of high-power laser colors from a single chip, enabling multi-color, high-bandwidth links that are designed to be energy-efficient and scalable for AI training and inference workloads. The product focuses on delivering extreme-bandwidth data transfer with photonic integration for data-center and AI infrastructure use cases.
Who it’s for: Data centers and AI infrastructure teams (owners of centralized AI training/inference systems, high-bandwidth interconnects between compute units, boards, and racks).
Networking with partners; explicit mention of a partner in Lausanne, Switzerland; company claims readiness to power terabit-class links today.
