In this video, Michael R. Watts from MIT presents: Electronic-Photonic Integration within Switches and Routers.

We review recent successes in silicon photonics and how the new capabilities afforded by silicon photonics will impact future Ethernet, Infiniband, and ultimately optical domain switches and routers. Specifically, we consider the impact silicon photonics can have on the cost, bandwidth, radix, and power consumption scaling of future switches and routers.”

Recorded at the Hot Interconnects 2012 conference in Santa Clara.
