Is 200% CAGR for CPO and NPO Plausible? Optical-Module Growth and Market Share Explained
Annual compound growth above 200% for CPO and NPO may initially sound overly optimistic. Yet a small 2025 base, AI-driven optical-module demand, and rising adoption of new architectures provide an industry rationale.

How CPO Is Changing Next-Generation PDs and TIAs: From Faster Optical Lanes to Optoelectronic Integration
CPO moves optical/electrical conversion next to switch or compute chips, accelerating receiver co-design and package integration. Next-generation PDs and TIAs face simultaneous challenges in per-lane speed, power density, and production yield.
