Temytch builds silicon-photonic interconnect and edge inference hardware that stitch scattered racks, factory floors and metro sites into one coherent compute plane — with deterministic latency measured in hundreds of nanoseconds, not milliseconds.
Deployed across 41 metro regions · 99.995% measured fabric availability
Photonics in the path, silicon at the edge, and a control plane that treats a hundred sites as a single scheduling domain.
A passive-core photonic switch that keeps traffic in the optical domain end to end. No packet buffering, no queue variance — just wavelength-routed lanes.
Half-depth inference nodes built for cabinets that were never meant to hold accelerators. Rated for 45 °C ambient and unattended sites.
The scheduler that decides where a workload should physically run, then lights the wavelength path to get it there before the first token is emitted.
Every optical-to-electrical conversion costs energy and adds jitter. Lumen Fabric removes the conversions between the endpoints instead of trying to make them faster.
Conductor allocates a dedicated wavelength pair between two endpoints. The path is reserved end to end, so contention never becomes queueing delay.
Traffic crosses a micro-ring resonator array with no active switching stage. Power draw is set by the laser plant, not by the traffic it carries.
Light lands on a photodetector bonded beside the accelerator die. Data reaches on-chip memory without ever touching a NIC or a PCIe root complex.
Thermal drift is corrected 1,000 times a second from per-lane telemetry, which keeps bit error rates flat across a 60 °C swing in an unconditioned cabinet.
Two fabric switches and two node classes. Everything shares the same optical backplane and the same management interface.
We moved our anomaly detection off the regional cloud and onto four Prism nodes sitting in substations. Round-trip time went from eleven milliseconds to under one, and we stopped shipping raw sensor data across the country entirely.
Temytch started in a shared photonics lab in 2019, with the unglamorous goal of making optical interconnect boring enough to put in a roadside cabinet.
A four-lane micro-ring test bench holds a stable link for 72 hours. The team leaves the university lab three months later.
First production switch ships to two metro network operators. 3.2 Tb/s, one rack unit, and a firmware stack we have since rewritten twice.
Prism E1 moves the photodetector onto the accelerator package, cutting node-side latency by an order of magnitude.
241 people, 41 metro regions, and a fabric that has run a full year without a region-wide interruption.
Our field engineers will walk your topology, model the latency budget, and tell you honestly whether photonics is the right answer for it.
