HUGE AI Clusters Will Need These

Video Description

We are looking at the Marvell COLORZ 800. These 800G ZR+ OSFP optical modules can push data 800Gbps at up to 1000km, or 400Gbps at 2500km. This super-fast interconnect is how future AI data centers can span large geographies. George and I had to travel to Marvell HQ to visit the lab so we have to say this is sponsored.
