OIF Unites Interoperability and Innovation at OFC 2025: Driving Industry Progress in Performance, Efficiency and Capacity for Future-Oriented Data Centers
OIF continues to lead the charge in advancing interoperability, with 35 member companies coming together at OFC 2025 to demonstrate innovative solutions that redefine performance, efficiency and capacity. The work being demonstrated across all areas – including 800ZR, 400ZR, OpenZR+, Multi-span optics; Energy Efficient Interfaces (EEI) & Co-Packaging; Common Electrical I/O (CEI) CEI-448G, CEI-224G, CEI-112G; and Common Management Interface Specification (CMIS) – is collectively enabling the industry to move forward toward future-oriented data centers. These technologies are not only shaping the next decade of network standards but are also laying the foundation for hyperscalers to seamlessly scale AI networks across interconnected data centers.
Visit OIF at booth #5745 to experience these groundbreaking solutions live!
