This week Mark Benton (TE Connectivity) joins me to chat all about rugged optical transceivers. Mark and I discuss how these transceivers can enable flexible embedded solutions, the challenges of unbalanced input and output channel counts in military and aerospace designs, and the benefits that modularity can bring to these kinds of designs. Also this week, I check out how you can take a trip to … Read More → "Next Generation Wafers and the Future of Optical Connectivity"
