“…As was discussed previously, embedded optics can also significantly reduce the power dissipation, for example by elimination of retiming circuits [204]. Recent publications regarding HPC, data centre systems and the announcement of the first co-packaged optics-ethernet-switch indicate that this is an active and very important future trend [205,235,236].…”

This paper reviews optical fibre technology for local area optical communications systems. Technologies used in local systems include single and multimode fibre, single and multimode lasers, optical modulators, photodetectors, wavelength division multiplexing, multilevel modulation formats, electronic packet switching, electronic equalization and error correction. These methods have enabled the local area optical link data rate to increase from 0.1 Gb/s in 1990 to nearly a Tb/s in 2019. The challenges to increasing link data rates further, whilst reducing the transmitted power per bit, at reduced cost are discussed. Potential technical solutions and newly proposed methods which might address these challenges are highlighted.
