Shenzhen, China – September 9, 2026 — The 27th China International Optoelectronic Exposition (CIOE) opened at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center (Bao'an) from September 9 to 11. Running alongside IICIE and elexcon, the three co-located shows covered 320,000 square meters and brought together more than 5,000 exhibitors and over 240,000 professional visitors, forming a full-chain showcase matrix spanning optics, storage, electronics and chips for AI computing.
As one of the core exhibitors in the information and communications field, Sino-Telecom presented under the theme "All-Optical Foundation · Intelligent Computing Interconnection · Boundless Security." The company brought its three flagship portfolios to the show — the all-optical foundation, intelligent computing interconnection, and network visualization — demonstrating end-to-end solutions from optical transmission and intelligent computing switching to access and security protection. Operators, internet companies, computing-infrastructure integrators and industry experts stopped by the booth for in-depth exchanges.
Intelligent Computing Interconnection: Redefining Cluster Connectivity
The intelligent computing interconnection zone highlighted the 800G DCI inter-data-center solution for AI computing centers, domestic 25.6T intelligent computing switches, and the AS8200 all-in-one intelligent computing appliance.
The 800G DCI solution addresses the massive data-migration bottleneck between AI computing centers with ultra-high speed, lossless intelligence and ultra-low latency. The domestic intelligent computing switch supports direct insertion of ZR/ZR+ optical modules, greatly simplifying networking and accelerating the large-scale deployment of domestic intelligent computing networks. The AS8200 appliance, built on Ascend AI processors, delivers integrated computing power for AI training and inference.
With its deep integration of IP and optical technologies in an autonomous, controllable architecture, Sino-Telecom offers a domestically developed interconnection option for 100,000-GPU-class computing clusters, drawing strong interest and recognition from professional visitors on site.
All-Optical Foundation: Backbone for Computing Cluster Transport
As large AI models and 100,000-GPU-class clusters ramp up, optical interconnection has become the core backbone for efficient cluster communication.
The all-optical foundation zone showcased distributed fiber sensing, the full OTN/WDM transmission series, PON OLT optical access solutions, the STN-A wireless backhaul solution and a range of switches. The OTN/WDM series covers metro-to-backbone optical transport scenarios and supports high-bandwidth interconnection between geographically distributed computing clusters. The PON OLT portfolio brings optical connectivity to enterprises across industries, while distributed fiber sensing builds an intelligent perception neural network for computing infrastructure, enabling real-time monitoring and early warning of fiber-cable health.
Demand for high-speed optical interconnection keeps growing as AI computing clusters expand. Powered by OTN/WDM and PON OLT as twin engines, Sino-Telecom's all-optical foundation consolidates the transport backbone for computing clusters from backbone to access, closely aligning with the event's focus on optical interconnection as the hub of AI computing clusters.
Network Visualization: An Intelligent Security Protection System
Optical interconnection must not only connect, but also be manageable. Sino-Telecom's network visualization zone presented a full-chain security protection system from optical-layer collection to intelligent analysis, featuring optical splitting and amplification, aggregation and distribution, fixed-network DPI and wireless-network DPI, malicious-program monitoring and traffic tracing systems.
From optical collection to DPI analysis, and from malicious-traffic monitoring to flow tracing, Sino-Telecom's AI-driven security data closed loop builds an all-round, visualized and manageable line of defense for intelligent computing networks. The zone attracted strong interest from cybersecurity professionals and became one of the most active discussion points during the show.
Throughout the exhibition, the Sino-Telecom booth stayed busy, drawing professional visitors from domestic and international operators, internet companies, data center operators and system integrators.
Outlook: Deepening Optical Interconnection for the AI Computing Era
The global optical interconnection market continues to grow rapidly, with sustained demand for 800G and 1.6T high-speed ports. As AI computing infrastructure expands, the markets for optical transport, optical switching and intelligent computing network equipment are growing in step. As an optical communications and intelligent computing network equipment vendor, Sino-Telecom will seize this industry opportunity and continue to deepen its work in optical interconnection and intelligent computing networks, building on autonomous and controllable products such as OTN/WDM, 800G DCI and intelligent computing switches to support the efficient interconnection of AI computing clusters and the high-quality development of China's computing infrastructure.
