The Photonic Foundation for AI Data Center Networks

DiCon’s Optical Circuit Switch (OCS) is a high-density, fully non-blocking optical matrix switch engineered specifically to meet the cost expectation and rigorous performance demands of AI data center networks. Built on DiCon’s proprietary MEMS mirror technology, this matrix switch leverages a platform that has been in high-volume commercial deployment for more than 20 years, offering an unrivaled track record of field-proven reliability.

DiCon’s MEMS is precise and stable. Unlike many other switching solutions that require complex feedback loops, this OCS delivers industry-leading repeatability and reliability with standalone MEMS. It will operate seamlessly in dark fiber environments.

As AI clusters scale, the need for dynamic, redundant, and energy-efficient connectivity becomes an urgent priority. DiCon’s OCS allows operators to reconfigure server clusters on the fly to meet evolving functional requirements and maintain 24/7 uptime through intelligent redundancy management.

By drastically reducing power consumption compared to electrical switches, DiCon’s OCS provides a sustainable, cost effective, and high-performance solution for the rapidly progressing AI landscape.

• Field-Proven Reliability: Leveraging over two decades of volume deployment and real-world performance.
• Sensor-less Stability: Proprietary MEMS design eliminates the need for feedback loops; mirrors stay locked even in "dark fiber" conditions.
• AI-Scale Efficiency: Dramatic reduction in power consumption and heat dissipation compared to electrical (OEO) switches.
• Future-Proof: Protocol and bit-rate agnostic, supporting seamless transitions at any speed
• Low Loss: Meeting End-of-Life (EOL) insertion loss requirement for AI data center needs
