AI Infrastructure Hardware & Optical Fabrics Lab

Where data-centre silicon meets optical interconnect.

AI Infrastructure Hardware & Optical Fabrics Lab

Why it matters

Every GPU cluster, frontier-model training run and sovereign-AI initiative ultimately rests on AI infrastructure hardware — high-bandwidth memory, accelerator fabrics, optical interconnects and the cooling systems that keep them alive. AIOF is among the few Indian labs offering hands-on exposure to this stack, from PCIe and CXL fabric to silicon photonics and liquid-cooled rack-scale design.

What you learn here

  • GPU server, PCIe and CXL fabric bring-up
  • Silicon photonics and high-speed optical interconnect labs
  • Liquid-cooled rack-scale design and thermal validation
  • AI accelerator board firmware and power-delivery testing
