Lumentum Holdings is a technology innovation company that supplies advanced optical products for data centers, offering solutions that contribute to improved energy efficiency. As data center networks transition from traditional copper-based connectivity to optical communication-centric architectures, the company's optical circuit switches (OCS), Transmit-Retimed Optical (TRO) modules, and lasers for Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) are helping reduce power consumption and cooling demands while also contributing to lower water usage in data centers.

In particular, as the expansion of AI services drives up data center power consumption, Lumentum Holdings is supporting efficient infrastructure development through optical communication technology and solidifying its position in the related market.

Meanwhile, Lumentum Holdings is also focused on sustainability management, pursuing a goal of achieving 'Net Zero' greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
