WDM Interconnection between Data Centers
In a WDM system, multiple optical carrier wavelengths, each modulated by a data signal, are multiplexed together and transmitted over a single optical fiber. This greatly increases the information carrying capacity of an optical fiber link compared to traditional copper. Large-scale data centers, housing thousands of servers and storage systems, require high-capacity and low-latency interconnection networks to provide reliable service to end users. Traditional copper-based Ethernet and switch technologies are reaching their scaling limits as data center traffic.
