NEXT VERIFIABLE CHECKS

What must be proven next

  1. Product, order and customer progression from 800G → 1.6T → 3.2T
  2. Architecture migration from Pluggable → LPO / LRO / NPO / CPO / XPO / OCS
  3. Whether revenue growth converts into margins and free cash flow

Research focusCompare product road maps, customer breadth, margins and cash conversion to distinguish durable infrastructure value from a short product cycle.
