Delos Data launches MoXI interconnect for disaggregated AI hardware
Startup unveils architecture to simplify connecting diverse chips, memory, and networks in AI systems.
What to know
- Delos Data launched MoXI, an abstraction layer for connecting diverse AI hardware—accelerators, memory, storage, and networks—reducing integration complexity for AI builders.
- The architecture supports multiple protocols (NVLink, UAlink, Ethernet, Infiniband) and topologies through NICs offering 400 Gbps to 30 Tbps of bandwidth.
- Company targets the exploding demand for AI inference at scale, where builders experiment with different technologies across the stack to maximize token production efficiency.
“AI builders shouldn't be burdened with the complexity of integrating all of the various products that are used in a modern disaggregated AI inference setup.”

MoXI NICs offer bandwidth from 400 Gbps to 30 Tbps
Delos Data announced three NIC offerings: an I/O chiplet delivering 30 Tbps of bandwidth (requires integration into chip), a near-packaged optics card with 10 Tbps, and a PCIe card with 400 Gbps. All support copper and pluggable optics, including emerging co-packaged optics, and work across scale-up, scale-out, and scale-across topologies.
“We want to be able to say, hey, we understand that the models are changing, the hardware is changing, the technologies…”
