This document provides an overview of Intel's Light Peak technology, which uses fiber optic cables to transmit data at speeds up to 10Gbps over distances of up to 100 meters. It describes the key components of Light Peak, including the optical fiber, light sources, light detectors, and packaging. Light Peak aims to replace existing connection standards like USB and PCIe with a single universal optical connection. It allows for thinner, more flexible cables while providing higher bandwidth than copper-based standards. The document discusses how Light Peak addresses challenges with existing technologies and compares it favorably to USB 3.0 in terms of speed and cable length.
