Abstract
Modern data centre networks are increasingly made up of optical fibre connections and controlled by software defined networking. Recent advances in THz wireless technologies have paved the way for ultra-high bandwidth wireless communication, reaching the point where these wireless links can begin to compete with optical fibre links. This work investigates the feasibility of integrating wireless THz links in a data centre network, reporting on the performance that can be achieved at the physical layer, proposing an architecture for the data link layer and illustrating, through network emulation, how these wireless links could be used to reduce congestion in a network.
