Embodiment Construction
[0016] In some embodiments, a system includes a set of servers, a set of switches within a switch fabric, and optical devices. The optical device is operatively coupled to the set of servers via a first set of optical fibers. Each server from the set of servers is associated with at least one wavelength from the set of wavelengths when connected to the optical device. The optical device is operatively coupled to each switch from the set of switches via an optical fiber from the second set of optical fibers. The optical device, when operatively operating, wavelength-demultiplexes optical signals received from each switch from the set of switches, and sends a signal to the server from the set of servers for each wavelength from the set of wavelengths to the server from the set of servers. wavelength of the optical signal.
[0017] In some embodiments, each server from the set of servers includes a wavelength-tunable optical transceiver having an operating wavelength range. Th...
