Summary of the Conference Call on Optical Module Research Industry Overview - The conference call focuses on the optical module industry, particularly the demand and pricing trends for 400G and 800G optical modules in 2025 and 2026 [2][5][10]. Key Points and Arguments 1. 800G Optical Module Demand: The demand for 800G optical modules is in a ramp-up phase, with expectations for significant growth in 2026, projected at 35 to 38 million units, reflecting strong market demand for high-performance optical modules [4][5]. 2. Pricing Trends: The price of 800G optical modules has decreased by approximately 15% due to scale production, with an additional expected decline of around 10% by the end of the year. This cost optimization is crucial for manufacturers' competitiveness [2][5]. 3. 400G Optical Module Stability: The average price of 400G optical modules remains stable, indicating a steady market for this segment [2][5]. 4. Cloud Service Providers' Demand: Companies like Zhongji Xuchuang are expected to achieve quarterly revenues of 50 to 60 million yuan in Q2, highlighting the urgent demand from cloud service providers for high-speed optical modules [7]. 5. AI Computing Impact: The explosion of AI computing is driving growth in 1.6T optical modules, with expectations for shipment volumes to double in 2026 compared to 2025. Companies that master silicon photonic integrated high-speed DSP chips will gain a market advantage [8][10]. 6. Meta's Demand for High-Performance Modules: Meta's data centers have a high ratio of ASIC chips to optical modules at 1.8, indicating a strong demand for high-performance optical modules. Companies like Zhongji Xuchuang and Xinyi Sheng have been certified by Meta and Google for bulk supply [9]. 7. North American Manufacturers' Strategy: North American manufacturers are accelerating their production lines for 800G and 1.6T modules, with market competition shifting towards cost control, delivery capabilities, and technological iteration [9][10]. Additional Important Insights - The key factors influencing market development include the capacity release rhythm of leading manufacturers and advancements in silicon photonics and next-generation technologies like CPO [3][10]. - The short-term outlook suggests that the price decline of 800G modules will enhance market penetration, while the long-term perspective indicates that 1.6T products will become a growth engine alongside the expansion of AI computing capabilities [3][10].
