- Light Trails: A Sub-Wavelength Solution for Optical Networking
- All-optical networks are able to transport data from source to destination entirely in the optical domain. This is a departure from current optical networks that rely on Optical-Electrical-Optical OEO conversion at each intermediate connection node to route data properly. The opacity inherent in traditional networks is costly in terms of...
