Abstract

As data center ethernet switches scale towards 100Tbps, the fiber interconnect will face significant cost, power and engineering barriers. We describe FRESCO, a fiber data center interconnect (DCI) that brings highly coherent WDM Terabit links inside the data center without the need for DSPs and other power consuming technologies. FRESCO is based on integrated ultra-stable, ultra-low linewidth laser, frequency comb and silicon photonic transceiver technologies.
