ATOP’s Active Electrical Cables (AEC) products, including 1.6T AEC, and 800G AEC, enhance copper-based connectivity to meet the demands of modern data-intensive applications such as generative AI, cloud computing, and advanced analytics. AECs incorporate active chips on both the transmit and receive sides to retime, amplify, and equalize signals. This active signal conditioning ensures reliable, high-speed communication over greater distances. ATOP’s AEC provides a scalable, power-efficient solution for linking switches, servers, and storage systems in advanced data centers. Supporting data rates up to 1.6T with low power consumption and high signal integrity, ATOP AECs are ideal for short-reach connections up to 7m within hyperscale data centers. ATOP’s AEC uses self-developed copper cables with premium silver-plated copper wire, offering high technical and certification barriers in the AI connectivity supply chain. We provide a high-end wire core solution with FEP foam, PE inner shielding, and wrapping, meeting intelligent connectivity connector requirements. This reduces dielectric constant, minimizes loss, enhances speed, stabilizes conductor spacing, and reduces return loss. With extensive DSP design experience and mature hardware/software platforms, we ensure AEC products’ top performance through comprehensive simulations, including signal integrity, structure, and thermal analysis.
