    Abstract: A network device operating as a network node in a network fabric has a set of connection ports to provide a bandwidth capacity for the network device. The connection ports include fabric ports to connect with respective strands using multipoint optical connections. Each strand can connect network nodes of the network fabric according to a harmonic specifying a node distance between adjacent connection points on the strand. The connection ports also include server ports to connect with servers and/or external networks. The network device also includes processing logic to distribute traffic for a destination node to network nodes along corresponding strands of the fabric ports.

    Abstract: A computer network organized in a logical grid having rows and columns can include network nodes coupled according to harmonics. Each network node can be coupled to network nodes of the same row using a set of horizontal strands according to a set of horizontal harmonics. Each of the horizontal harmonics specifies a node distance along the row between adjacent connection points on the corresponding horizontal strand. Each network node can also be coupled to network nodes of the same column using a set of vertical strands according to a set of vertical harmonics. Each of the vertical harmonics specifies a node distance along the column between adjacent connection points on the corresponding vertical strand.

    Abstract: A system and method for distributing quantum entanglement using optically protected fiber optical paths is described. In some embodiments, multiple optical paths are used to connect a source site to a receiver site. Quantum entangled particles are transmitted from the source site to the receiver site using a first one of the multiple optical paths and related service channel information is transmitted from the source site to the receiver site using a second one of the multiple optical paths. In response to a failure of either the first or second optical path, an entanglement distribution controller automatically updates the routing such that the service channel information and the quantum entangled particles are routed concurrently on a remaining one of the first or second optical path.
