routing photons is harder than routing electrons which is why i like ciena.

Routing photons... uh... yeah... that requires a photon buffer. Have you ever heard of such a thing?

Ahhhh.. you have hit my favorite subject. The physics of converting light to electrons to photons and back. I have spent the last 30 plus years since college studying this subject.

This is the holy grail for information transport!

P.S The future is in this very subject.

Trillions of $$$ will be made on this very subject!
