On 15 October 2025, Marvell Technology, Inc. announced the addition of active copper cable (ACC) linear equalizers to its connectivity portfolio, expanding the company’s scale‑up interconnect solutions for data center applications. The new ACC linear equalizers deliver superior gain, extending the reach of ACC compared to competitive solutions at the same cable gauge, and support 800G and 1.6T copper interconnects. This capability addresses the growing bandwidth and power‑efficiency requirements of AI workloads, positioning Marvell to capture higher‑margin revenue from hyperscale customers. By adding ACC to its existing active electrical cable (AEC) and active optical cable (AOC) offerings, Marvell strengthens its end‑to‑end interconnect stack, enabling customers to deploy thinner copper cabling while maintaining performance. The expanded portfolio enhances Marvell’s differentiation in the high‑speed interconnect market and supports its broader AI‑first data infrastructure strategy. Marvell indicates that the ACC linear equalizers are currently sampling to customers, with broader availability expected in the near term. The company’s announcement at the OCP Global Summit underscores its commitment to delivering next‑generation interconnect solutions that meet the evolving demands of AI‑centric data centers.
