Increasing demand for internet-based services has lead to the evolution of data centres into warehouse-scale computers (WSC). One of the major problems faced by such large-scale facilities is the interconnections between servers and other elements in the system. Current solutions based on vertical cavity surface emitting lasers combined with multi-mode fibres do not meet the requirements for distance, while InP-based solutions at 1.55 microns are expensive.

对基于互联网的服务的需求不断增长，导致数据中心演变为仓库规模的计算机（WSC）。这种大规模设施面临的主要问题之一是服务器与系统中其他元件之间的互连。目前基于垂直腔面发射激光器与多模光纤结合的解决方案不满足距离要求，而1.55微米的InP基解决方案价格昂贵。
