Ranovus® announces collaboration with Jabil® for mass production of ODIN® optical engine

ODIN® Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) and Near Packaged Optics (NPO) Optical Engines are Powering Next-Generation AI Computing Platforms for Training and Inference with Industry-Leading low latency, Power Efficiency, and Compact Design

OFC, San Francisco, California – March 31, 2025 – Ranovus Inc., a leading provider of multi-terabit optical interconnect solutions for data centers and AI computing, today announced a strategic manufacturing collaboration with Jabil Inc., a global leader in the design, manufacturing, and supply chain of silicon photonics interconnect solutions. This collaboration will enable the high-volume production of Ranovus’ ODIN® optical engine, a groundbreaking monolithic Electronic and Photonic Integrated Circuit (EPIC) platform designed for multi-terabit optical interconnect applications in AI and data center environments.

The ODIN® optical engine delivers unparalleled optical interconnect bandwidth with best-in-class power efficiency, size, and cost-effectiveness. Featuring monolithic integration of silicon photonics, RF drivers, transimpedance amplifiers (TIA), and control logic, ODIN® supports high-speed data transmission for AI and machine learning workloads. Key innovations include patented silicon photonics-based Micro Ring Modulators (MRM), internal isolator-free laser sources, and high-performance photodetectors. Its low-latency, protocol-agnostic architecture is designed to support compute, memory, and networking interconnect standards in both Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) and Near Packaged Optics (NPO) form factors.

“Collaborating with Jabil allows us to leverage their world-class manufacturing expertise and advanced facilities to scale ODIN® optical engine production,” said Hamid Arabzadeh, Chairman and CEO at Ranovus. “This collaboration accelerates our ability to meet the growing demand for high-bandwidth, power-efficient optical interconnects in next-generation AI and data center applications.”

 Matt Crowley, Executive Vice President, Global Business Units at Jabil, added: “We are excited to partner with Ranovus to bring the ODIN® optical engine to mass production. Our expanded silicon photonics manufacturing capabilities across North America and Asia are ideally suited to support the increasing capacity demands of hyperscalers and next-generation AI computing platforms.”

This collaboration reinforces both companies’ commitment to driving the widespread adoption of silicon photonics and delivering power-efficient, cost-effective solutions to the AI compute and networking ecosystem.

Ranovus will be showcasing ODIN® at OFC 2025 in San Francisco, booth 6273, March 31-April 3.

Jabil will be showcasing ODIN® at OFC 2025 in San Francisco, booth 5845, March 31-April 3.
