LLMs and Optical Networks: A Symbiotic Relationship
arXiv:2606.30278
Abstract
This paper explores the emerging symbiosis between LLMs and optical networks. Massive LLMs require geo-distributed training, which demands advanced optical transport capabilities that require new key technical enablers, as WAN-aware CCL algorithms, ZR+ pluggables, and Hollow Core Fibers. Conversely, LLMs also enable new forms of autonomous network management.
