India is projected to increase its GPU-based server capacity to approximately 520,000 GPUs by 2026. This expansion is expected to drive demand for compact, high-density optical fibre cables with 70 per cent more fibre than traditional data centres.
STL, the second company globally and first in India to offer mainstream high-density IBR optical products, positions itself to capitalise on this growing market. The company’s AI-DC portfolio features Celesta Ribbon cables, high-density connectivity solutions, and various data centre-specific products.
The move comes as AI adoption increases globally, with ChatGPT users expected to exceed one billion by 2025, driving the need for robust data centre infrastructure.
