  • Abstract
    Future packaging needs are projected from the perspective of a packet switch chip family. With the growth of bandwidth in the Internet, traditional copper-based intrabox transmission systems are running into limitations. Optics offer a solution, but the main challenge is to reduce the cost and establish appropriate standards
