XDC high-speed optical communication for data centers
23.06.2025 | 09:25 |X Display Company (XDC) has introduced a groundbreaking wireless optical communication technology capable of transmitting data at speeds up to 1 million frames per second. This system utilizes an ultra-fast microLED display as a transmitter and a high-speed camera as a receiver, enabling instantaneous machine-to-machine communication, effectively replacing traditional cables.
This innovation is designed for data centers, where it aims to achieve a throughput of up to 1 Tbps, surpassing most current networking solutions. The primary advantages of XDC's technology include high energy efficiency (2-3 times better than existing 800G standards) and the elimination of the need for expensive cabling, which simplifies infrastructure deployment and maintenance.
According to XDC, this technology paves the way for optical computing and more flexible, scalable networking solutions. However, its implementation will necessitate significant upgrades to existing data center infrastructure. While the extent of its future adoption remains to be seen, its potential to transform data transmission is evident.
