Photonic Networks

Photonic networks use light, typically via fiber optic cables, to transmit data at very high speeds and over long distances. Unlike traditional electrical signals in copper wires, light signals experience less attenuation and interference, enabling faster and more reliable communication. These networks are essential for backbone internet connections, data centers, and telecommunications, providing the capacity to handle massive amounts of data efficiently. By leveraging the properties of photons, photonic networks facilitate future scalable and high-performance digital infrastructure, supporting the growing demands of cloud computing, streaming, and global connectivity.
