  • Abstract
    Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) offers the potential for ultrahigh information-flux optical communications at the petabit/s level, as well as reduced costs-per-bit. I review progress to date and discuss some of the technological/commercial challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
