Q&A Batch (1-5 of 5)
Q1 — Richard Schafer
- Topic: ACC MSA standard and capacity expansion outlook
- Key points:
- MSA is working on common denominators (cable design, manufacturing process) to accelerate ACC adoption.
- Capacity is "king"; company started adding capacity 18 months ago and supports drop-in orders.
- Further capacity expansion planned to "double or triple" current capacity, working with foundry and OSAT partners.
- Mgmt stance: Bullish – strong capacity availability and ongoing expansion to capture share in supply-constrained environment.
Q2 — Sean O'Loughlin
- Topic: Narrow-linewidth CW lasers for coherent light, CPO, and OpEx allocation
- Key points:
- DFB CW lasers have narrow-linewidth "well below 300 kilohertz," sampled to key module manufacturers, qualification underway.
- Coherent light production ramp expected in "mid-2028"; CPO light source solutions targeted for 2028.
- Q1 OpEx: R&D was 17.6% of net sales (+20 bps YoY, +17% YoY); SG&A 15.1% of sales (-200 bps YoY).
- SG&A as % of sales projected to continue declining in Q2; R&D investment focused on data center and LoRa.
- Mgmt stance: Bullish – high-conviction R&D investment with strong expected returns; clear product pipeline for near and medium term.
Q3 — Christopher Rolland
- Topic: Optical revenue drivers (LPO, 1.6T) and copper diversification (ACC, linear equalizer)
- Key points:
- Q1 data center revenue predominantly 800G FRO and LPO; LPO saw sequential increase from mid-single-digit in Q4.
- Q2 expects continued 800G FiberEdge strength, first 1.6T CopperEdge ramp for ACC, and first FiberEdge revenue for 1.6T optical transceivers.
- ACC diversification: samples being evaluated by multiple hyperscalers and enterprise customers; MSA will help.
- Linear equalizer onboard for backplanes has engagements with hyperscalers and ODMs; additional design wins expected in coming quarters.
- Mgmt stance: Bullish – copper demand strong at higher data rates (>224G); growing beyond main customer.
Q4 — Quinn Bolton (part 1)
- Topic: Bidirectional (BiDi) linear equalizer for backplanes
- Key points:
- Demand received for BiDi linear equalizer; current CopperEdge portfolio supports only unidirectional.
- Engineers have preliminary architecture for BiDi on one chip; key building block IP already exists from 3 generations of CopperEdge.
- Timeline not yet set; in customer engagement phase for product definition.
- Mgmt stance: Neutral – doable but early stage; no committed launch date.
Q5 — Quinn Bolton (part 2)
- Topic: FY27 data center growth outlook
- Key points:
- Q2 sequential growth of 35% QoQ for data center is comfortable; H1 FY27 data center up ~62% vs H1 FY26.
- Second-half growth expected to accelerate due to 1.6T CopperEdge, FiberEdge, and HieFo optical components.
- Previous 50% YoY growth floor was "confusion"; not capping growth potential.
- Mgmt stance: Bullish – unprecedented year-over-year growth expected; visibility and backlog support acceleration.
Q&A Batch (6–8 of 8)
Q6 — Cody Grant Acree
- Topic: 1.6T光学与LPO/LRO路线
- Key points:
- 1.6T设计赢来自多家主要模块供应商，服务超大规模及GPU公司系统方案。
- 初始量产采用FRO（全重定时光学），线性驱动器和TIA已提供模块客户评估LRO/LPO。
- 未来将通过技术日/分析师日提供更全面的TAM预测，目前未给出具体数字。
- Mgmt stance: 中性偏积极（拥有合适产品线在评估中，但暂未提供定量指引）
Q7 — Tristan Gerra
- Topic: ACC持久性与LoRa增长前景
- Key points:
- ACC 与 Broadcom SerDes 互补，非竞争；Broadcom CPO 路线（800G per lane）需多年才量产，redriver 可长期用于铜缆扩展。
- LoRa 增长由三大支柱驱动：增加带宽、添加RF协议解锁新应用（安全、智能建筑、Amazon Sidewalk）、以及网关端加速部署（过去12个月终端节点达1.5亿，网关开始增长）。
- Edge AI 为 LoRa 带来额外可能，目前处于早期阶段。
- Mgmt stance: 看好（ACC 长期存在，LoRa 增长可持续，网关扩张拉动节点需求）
Q8 — Kyle Robert Smith
- Topic: Gain芯片产能缺口及LPO/LRO增长驱动
- Key points:
- Gain芯片需求超过产能约3倍；通过增加班次、洁净室和设备扩产，预计2026年底产能提升3–4倍，2027年底再提升3–4倍。
- LPO/LRO增长主要来自客户从FRO转向线性化方案，预计1–2年内线性化方案占收发器组合约25%。
- Mgmt stance: 积极（积极扩产以满足相干市场需求；看好LPO/LRO替代趋势）
