The [[Optical Internetworking Forum]] in 2016 published the CFP2-ACO or CFP2 - Analog Coherent Optics Module Interoperability Agreement (IA). This IA supports a configuration where the [[digital signal processor]] (DSP) is on the main board and analog optical components are on the module. This IA is useful in the case when the DSP exceeds the module power envelope.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.oiforum.com/wp-content/uploads/OIF-CFP2-ACO-01.0.pdf |title=OIF-CFP2-ACO-01.0 |date=2016-01-22 |accessdate=2017-05-08 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171215155031/http://www.oiforum.com/wp-content/uploads/OIF-CFP2-ACO-01.0.pdf |archive-date=2017-12-15 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
 
The ACO interface can be used in coherent optics applications when the link delivers a flexible amount of bandwidth to the system, for example when combined with [[FlexE]]. The initial ACO IA is for the CFP2 module.
