Morgan Stanley: FCC to Ban Chinese 3.2T Optical Modules by 2026

Neutral

What Happened

Morgan Stanley released a report indicating the FCC may impose regulations on Chinese-made 3.2T optical modules, potentially starting as early as October 2026, with a phased implementation and exemptions for products with high US content.

Bottom Line

Morgan Stanley sees FCC regulation as a long-term threat to Chinese optical module makers but a near-term boon for US laser suppliers, with limited immediate revenue impact.
