Abstract
Circuit packages that include an optical switch having a wireless interface and multiple floating transceivers disposed along a periphery of the optical switch. At lease some of the floating transceivers are configurable to map a number M of optical channels from an optical fiber into a number N of wireless bands in a terahertz spectrum, wherein M≠N in some cases.
Claims23
A circuit package comprising:
- an optical switch comprising a wireless interface;
- and
- a plurality of floating transceivers positioned along a periphery of the optical switch configured to map a plurality of optical channels from an optical fiber into multi-band wireless signals in a terahertz spectrum.
A computer network device comprising:
- a plurality of optical fiber inputs;
- an optical switch formed on a central die, the optical switch comprising a wireless interface;
- and
- a plurality of floating transceivers each formed on a die disposed on a periphery of the central die, each of the floating transceivers configured to map a plurality of optical channels from a corresponding one or more of the optical fibers into terahertz spectrum multi-band wireless signals on the wireless interface.
