Application

As data centers continue to become faster and denser, electrical wiring losses and power consumption have become important issues that affect system performance. Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) is a technology that fundamentally solves these issues by placing optical devices close to the semiconductor package, enabling high-bandwidth, energy-efficient communications.
Hakusan Inc. supports the mounting and mass production of CPOs through special MT Ferrule with reflow resistance, ferrule designs suitable for high-density mounting, and custom solutions compatible with silicon photonics.

• 

  80µm MT Ferrule (MTRCF™)

  This MT Ferrule is for reduced cladding fibers with a φ80µm clad, ideal for silicon photonics and CPO internal arrangements. It uses a general-purpose guide pin standard and has a 250µm fiber pin, ensuring compatibility with existing MT Ferrule while achieving high-density mounting and flexibility in wiring design.

• 

  Narrow-Pitch MT Ferrule (MTDS®)

  Compatible with reduced cladding clad φ80µm fibers, it achieves high-density packaging of 24 to 32-Fiber in a row at a fiber pitch of 125µm/127µm. It maintains compatibility with the guide pins of conventional MT Ferrule and is ideal for next-generation optical connections such as backplanes and CPO/OBO.

• 

  Reflowable MT Ferrule (MTHR®)

  The high heat-resistant structure can withstand reflow at 260°C, and maintains high fiber hole position accuracy (eccentricity of 0.7µm or less) even after the reflow process. Compatible with 12/16/24 24-Fiber-mode Single-mode, this MT Ferrule combines the reliability and precision required for high-density mounting of next-generation optical devices.

• 

  Ceramic Multifiber ferrule (CMF®)

  The highly heat-resistant ceramic structure maintains a stable shape even at high-temperature reflow temperatures of over 260°C. Customizable thicknesses of 0.5 to 1.2 mm and high-precision connections enable an IL of 0.7 dB or less, making it suitable for use in ELSFP high-power laser applications and in fields such as aerospace where high reliability is required.

• 

  PMT connector for polymer optical waveguide

  This optical connector is compatible with polymer optical waveguides, and is designed for mounting environments that require high-density Optical Interconnect. MT Ferrule compatible interface enables narrow-pitch, low-loss wiring designs, and is also flexible for on-board optical connections and CPO configurations.

• 

  MTCT® Connector

  This optical connector is suitable for relay connections around optical modules. Its thin, short structure eliminates the need for adapters, saving space, and its reassemblable structure and compact, high-precision ferrules enable low-loss connections, increasing connection flexibility and manufacturing efficiency around optical modules in CPO configurations.

• 

  Expanded Beam Connector (GrinEB® Connector)

  This non-contact optical connector has an expanded beam structure that reduces spring pressure and extends its lifespan. Its dust-free design reduces maintenance burden and is expected to be used in harsh environments such as immersion cooling systems, aerospace, and industrial applications.
