Co-packaged optics (CPO) is rapidly emerging as a foundational architecture for next-generation AI infrastructure. With Nvidia's latest Scale-Up CPO switch roadmap now taking shape, bandwidth per AI rack is set to increase from approximately 130 TB/s in the Blackwell generation to more than 1 PB/s in the Feynman era, spanning Blackwell, Rubin, Rubin Ultra, and Feynman platforms. As a result, the g
