  • Liquid cooling has more potential than optical modules

    Liquid cooling has more potential than optical modules

    HPC and AI applications are the primary factor driving the adoption of liquid cooling. Meanwhile, pluggable copper and optical IO module power consumption exceed MSA-specified limits, necessitating more effective cooling methods for front-panel pluggable form-factor. Thermal management plays a pivotal role in enhancing the reliability and efficiency of high-power pluggable optical modules. Read Time: 6 Min Bandwidth for chip-to-chip and chip-to-memory. Traditional air-cooling solutions can no longer meet the thermal demands of high-performance chips such as GPUs, ASICs, and optical chips. According to IDC, the global liquid-cooled data center market will exceed USD 20 billion by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25%. 2 Liquid. Liquid cooling is a heat transfer mechanism in which the coolant (typically a dielectric fluid or water), via direct or indirect contact with a high-power component like the ASIC or the optical module, removes the heat dissipated by the component and, thereby, controls its temperature.
