Abstract :
We have obtained successful operation of the 10-channel POLO (Parallel Optical Link Organization) module at 622 Mb/s per channel with up to 400 m of ribbon fiber. An overview of the present status of the POLO program will be given, including component performance, packaging approach, and system results. Our progress towards the development of the 2nd generation POLO module will also be discussed
