PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO) today announced it will showcase major advancements in its scale-up and scale-out AI networking solutions at the 2025 Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit. Featuring innovations such as the Tomahawk^® 6, Tomahawk Ultra, Jericho4 Ethernet switches, and its third-generation TH6-Davisson Co-packaged Optics (CPO), Broadcom will present a comprehensive AI infrastructure portfolio designed to meet the exponential bandwidth demands of modern AI workloads while optimizing performance as models grow in scale and complexity. The 2025 OCP Global Summit will be held October 13 – 16 in San Jose.

“Over the past year, Broadcom has played a pivotal role in enabling open, scalable and power-efficient AI infrastructure. Beyond introducing the Scale-Up Ethernet (SUE) framework to the OCP community, we launched breakthrough products spanning low-latency ethernet, co-packaged optics and PCIe Gen 6,” said Charlie Kawwas, Ph. D., president of the Semiconductor Solutions Group, Broadcom. “We look forward to sharing our latest innovations and insights shaping the future of AI infrastructure at the OCP Global Summit next week.”

“The Open Compute Project is pleased to have the participation, the innovative leadership and the contributions of Broadcom within the OCP Community for years, and especially at a time when interconnects have become central to building out large scale AI clusters,” said George Tchaparian, CEO, Open Compute Project Foundation. “With Broadcom providing their continued leadership for an OCP workstream to deliver on open scale-up networking using Ethernet, the OCP Community and our broader ecosystem will be well positioned to solve important interconnect challenges to deal with data center expansions as AI clusters are designed and deployed worldwide."

At this year’s summit, Ram Velaga, senior vice president and general manager of Broadcom’s Core Switching Group, will deliver a keynote titled “Networking for AI Scaling” on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, at 9:27 a.m. Pacific Time in the South Hall of the San Jose Convention Center.
