Market Size and Growth Outlook
The Co-Packaged Optics Market was valued at USD 200 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1.45 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 28.1% during the forecast period.

Market Overview
Co-packaged optics (CPO) represents a paradigm shift in high-speed data transmission, integrating optical components directly into chip packages such as CPUs and GPUs. This innovation eliminates traditional optical modules, enabling higher bandwidth, reduced latency, and lower power consumption. Major breakthroughs in 2024 include:

• NVIDIA incorporating CPO in GB200 AI superchips, cutting power usage by 30%.

• CPO Alliance releasing its first interoperability standards.

• TSMC mass-producing 3nm CPO solutions.

The CPO market is being driven by:

• AI workload expansion.

• The shift to 800G and 1.6T networks.

• Energy-efficient infrastructure demands.

Despite its potential, challenges remain in thermal management, standardization, and integration costs.
