Abstract: A TORminator module is disposed with a switch linecard of a rack. The TORminator module receives downlink electrical data signals from a rack switch. The TORminator module translates the downlink electrical data signals into downlink optical data signals. The TORminator module transmits multiple subsets of the downlink optical data signals through optical fibers to respective SmartDistributor modules disposed in respective racks. Each SmartDistributor module receives multiple downlink optical data signals through a single optical fiber from the TORminator module. The SmartDistributor module demultiplexes the multiple downlink optical data signals and distributes them to respective servers. The SmartDistributor module receives multiple uplink optical data signals from multiple servers and multiplexes them onto a single optical fiber for transmission to the TORminator module. The TORminator module coverts the multiple uplink optical data signals to multiple uplink electrical data signals, and transmits the multiple uplink electrical data signals to the rack switch.

Abstract: An intact semiconductor wafer (wafer) includes a plurality of die. Each die has a top layer including routings of conductive interconnect structures electrically isolated from each other by intervening dielectric material. A top surface of the top layer corresponds to a top surface of the wafer. Below the top layer, each die has a device layer including optical devices and electronic devices. Each die has a cladding layer below the device layer and on a substrate of the wafer. Each die includes a photonic test port within the device layer. For each die, a light transfer region is formed within the intact wafer to extend through the top layer to the photonic test port within the device layer. The light transfer region provides a window for transmission of light into and out of the photonic test port from and to a location on the top surface of the wafer.
