In the latest plot twist of the high-stakes bidding war for Warner Bros. Discovery, Netflix said Thursday it would not increase a counteroffer for the company's studio and streaming assets, effectively clearing the way for Paramount Skydance's revised bid to take center stage. That comes after the WBD board deemed Paramount's revised all-cash bid earlier this week of $31 per share, up from $30 per share, to be a superior offer to acquire the entire company.Netflix had four business days to revise its bid in ...

光交换机OCS(Optical Circuit Switch)是一种无需光电/电光（O/E/O）转换，直接实现光信号在光纤端口 间切换的技术，应用于AI算力集群、超大规模数据中心的叶脊架构互连、超节点集群高速通信等场 景。通过直接在光域完成数据信号的路由与切换，无需进行光电/电光转换，OCS技术从底层规避了传 统电交换在高速传输下的带宽瓶颈、功耗损耗问题，大幅缩短了信号传输的时延，同时其功耗仅与端口 数相关、与信号传输速率无关，大大降低减少了功耗。行业技术研究与落地实践验证，OCS技术可助力 AI算力集群、数据中心光互连系统整体功耗降低30%以上。 OCS目前有四种技术路线，成本、性能、技术难度的权衡。目前，OCS主要有MEMS、液晶、压电、硅 波导四大技术路线，MEMS方案作为谷歌自研方案商用节奏最快，其次是液晶方案。随着谷歌从"自研 +代工"的模式逐步转向OCS整机方案采购，释放出更大的OCS市场空间。 国信证券近日发布数据中心互联技术专题：根据Cignal AI的测算，2025年OCS市场由谷歌MEMS OCS 主导，总体市场规模约为4亿美元；2029年OCS的市场规模将超过25亿美元，四年CAGR约为 ...
