Abstract :
The present paper will briefly review issues in the context of overall intelligent optical interconnection module (IOIM) pair design needs. Emphasis will be given to present design efforts on the electronic virtual optical alignment (EVOA) system with discussion of design results and trade-offs regarding the externally controlled detector array and the array switching network architecture
