E-Power Inc. and Raytel Electronics Form Strategic Partnership to Debut Next-Gen 800G/1.6T Optical Modules for U.S. AI Data Centers

(SeaPRwire) –   DOVER, USA, March 27, 2026 — E-Power Inc. (“E-Power”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) (NASDAQ: EPOW), a leading provider of AI Data Center (AIDC) microgrid solutions and advanced battery materials, today announced a major strategic alliance with Raytel Electronics (“Raytel”) to jointly launch industry-leading 800G and 1.6T high-speed optical modules tailored specifically for the North American AI infrastructure market.

This collaboration represents a key expansion of E-Power’s AIDC ecosystem, combining Raytel’s cutting-edge optical communication technology with E-Power’s integrated power solutions to tackle the twin challenges of data throughput and energy efficiency in the AI era.

Powering the AI Revolution: Where Connectivity Meets Energy

As AI Data Centers evolve, the demand for high-speed data transmission and reliable power supply has become interconnected.

• Next-Generation Connectivity: Leveraging Raytel’s advanced R&D capabilities, the partnership will introduce 800G OSFP/QSFP-DD and 1.6T DR8/LPO optical modules. These products are engineered for ultra-low power consumption and high-density AI clusters, significantly reducing the operational costs of large-scale GPU environments.
• Market-Leading Scale: With the global market for high-speed optical transceivers projected to exceed $35 billion by 2030, E-Power and Raytel are positioning themselves at the forefront of this rapid growth.
• Synergistic AIDC Solutions: By merging high-speed optical networking with E-Power’s proprietary microgrid and anode-based storage technology, the Company now offers a “Total Solution” for AIDC operators—optimizing both the Data Flow and the Power Flow.

Strategic Highlights of the Raytel Partnership

• Technical Excellence: Raytel brings a robust product roadmap, including 400G, 800G, and upcoming 1.6T LPO/CPO solutions designed for transmission distances of 50m to 500m.
• U.S. Market Focus: The joint initiative will prioritize deploying these high-speed modules in the United States, utilizing E-Power’s established corporate infrastructure and localized strategy to serve leading hyperscalers and AI service providers.
• Operational Integration: The two companies will form a joint technical task force to ensure Raytel’s optical hardware seamlessly aligns with E-Power’s smart energy management systems, enhancing overall data center PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness).

“The AI revolution is not just about chips—it’s about the seamless integration of high-speed connectivity and sustainable power,” said Mr. Haiping Hu, Chairman of E-Power Inc. “By partnering with Raytel to bring 800G and 1.6T technology to the U.S., we are closing the loop on the AI Data Center value chain. We are now uniquely positioned to provide the ‘nervous system’ (optical modules) and the ‘heart’ (microgrids) of tomorrow’s AI infrastructure.”
