Quantum and AI are converging. ORCA’s photonic quantum accelerator plugs straight into AI hardware, models, and pipelines already in use, giving your AI a genuine quantum edge today.

Scalable

Scalable architecture

Modular and upgradeable architecture, that scales in capability and performance. Add capacity incrementally without obsoleting what you have installed.

icon-ai-watt

Energy efficient

Greater AI capability within existing power constraints, enabling data centres to unlock more value.

Data-centres-icon

Built for the data centre

Most major quantum modalities were designed for lab settings, not the data centre. Built from proven telecommunications-grade components, the PT Series ships as standard: 42U, 750kg and 6kW power draw.
