Photonic Switching for Data Center Applications

Switching fabrics in data centers that rely on traditional electrical switches face scaling issues in terms of power consumption. Fast optical switches based on a silicon photonics platform can enable the high port speed and high interconnection density needed while still maintaining a small footpri...
