How are hyperscalers addressing energy efficiency in AI infrastructure? Jeff Hutchins (Ranovus) OIF Board Member and PLL Working Group
Energy Efficient Interfaces (EEI) Vice Chair explains: - OIF's Energy Efficient Interfaces group is developing multiple solutions beyond co-packaging to meet future hyperscaler needs - Current AI training clusters with 5,000 copper cable pairs would consume 20,000 additional watts if converted to pluggable optics - The initiative balances energy efficiency, reliability, cost, and latency while engaging participants from end users to laser manufacturers.
