Optical connectivity FAQs

What optical transceiver speeds does Photon Optics supply?

Photon Optics supplies compatible 200G, 400G, 800G and 1.6T optical transceivers. Available form factors and optical standards vary by product. Check the product specifications and confirm host-platform compatibility before ordering.

How do I choose optics for an AI training cluster?

Start with the exact switch, NIC or DPU port and its supported speed and form factor. Then match the optical standard, reach, fibre, connector and any breakout design at both ends of the link. Check platform compatibility before ordering.

How can I check whether an optic is compatible with my equipment?

Use the Photon Optics compatibility checker with your exact host model or OEM part number. Review the verification details shown for a match. If your platform is not listed, send the model and part number to the Photon Optics team for confirmation.

What warranty and lead time apply to Photon Optics products?

Photon Optics optical transceivers are covered by a 5-year warranty. Products are manufactured to order, with a typical manufacturing and delivery lead time of 2–3 weeks. Refer to the warranty and delivery pages for full terms.
