The switch enables 100Gbps wavelength-space routing for InfiniBand and supports a 1Gbps real-time video transmission over Ethernet, demonstrating its potential for AI-driven, high-bandwidth, agile networks.engTwo-dimensional photonic-switched high-speed interconnects for AI-driven data centre networksProceedings paper10.1109/ecoc66593.2025.11262923WOS:001680185000001
