In recent years, data centers have undergone rapid transformation, driven by advancements in generative artificial intelligence (AI). Applications like ChatGPT, Midjourney, DALL·E, and Deepbrain, which respond to natural language inquiries, require enormous computational power and operate with very low latency levels. This places significant pressure on networks and computing data centers. These programs ‘learn’ by scouring large amounts of data making them extremely bandwidth-hungry.

To keep up in this highly demanding new era, data center operators must ensure they can meet the increased demands, making component choices crucial. Choosing advanced optical transceivers capable of handling bandwidth-intensive data flows is a key part of this. This means turning to the new breed of 400G and 800G transceivers. But what should you consider before purchasing?

Value

Implementing 400G or 800G transceivers at the heart of your network can enhance data handling and processing capabilities, especially during the transition from CPU-based architecture to GPU-based parallel data flow. These transceivers can also help reduce latency and accelerate data transmission and compute capacity within data centers.

You can find additional value from a leading third-party fiber optics supplier rather than accepting a bundle from a Network Equipment Manufacturer (NEM). AddOn’s value goes well beyond cost savings, offering improved product delivery, NEM-level or higher quality, and the expertise to fully support advanced AI and ML cluster deployments.

Speed of Delivery

Increased demand not only demands higher prices but can also lead to supply restrictions. With a robust supply chain and large stocks of 400G and 800G transceivers, we deliver up to 90% of orders within 48 hours in both the USA & UK. Our supply chain ensures we can hedge against shortages from any single component supplier. This quick turnaround is crucial for data centers needing to scale rapidly or replace faulty components without delay.

Quality

Given the importance of this new generation of transceivers for modern data centers, reliability must be at the forefront of any purchasing decision. Our deep understanding of transceiver performance is driven by massive investments in lab equipment. We qualify our transceiver components against a rigorous test plan to ensure each transceiver we ship is fully compatible with the network element. Fully compatible means the transceiver works as expected – without errors or other anomalies that require attention.

Beyond component qualification, each transceiver we ship is tested in our labs to replicate our customers’ environments. This 100% testing guarantee in actual NEM equipment provides peace of mind, knowing that each component will perform reliably in real-world conditions.

Expertise and Support

AddOn has vast experience deploying transceivers in some of the most advanced AI and ML environments worldwide. One of the top challenges our customers face is ensuring interoperability between equipment from different network equipment manufacturers. AddOn offers solutions to these challenges by offering proof-of-concept testing within our lab to ensure a successful deployment.

Our service also extends to supporting operators post-delivery. We offer customers a FOC lifetime warranty and round-the-clock access to support teams and engineers around the world. By ensuring customer products are in working order and continue to meet requirements after the initial sale, the consistency and reliability of the 400G and 800G transceivers – and by extension, the AI tools that rely on them can be easily maintained.

Don't let outdated connectivity hold back your AI and ML capabilities.
