1. A system for enabling a plurality of optical channels for high-speed communication between a plurality of compute systems in a computing environment, the system comprising:
the plurality of compute systems; and
the plurality of optical channels, wherein
each optical channel of the plurality of optical channels corresponds to an optical transmission and reception system,
the optical transmission and reception system comprises:
(i) a transmission apparatus associated with a first compute system of the plurality of compute systems, wherein the transmission apparatus is configured to receive at leas on optical signal from the first compute system; and
(ii) a plurality of reception apparatuses associated with a second compute system of the plurality of compute systems, wherein the plurality of reception apparatuses is configured to receive the at least one optical signal from the first compute system via the transmission apparatus,
the transmission apparatus includes:
a first side configured to:
receive the at least one optical signal from the first compute system; and
convert the at least one optical signal into one or more path signals, wherein the one or more path signals include a first path signal, a second path signal, and a third path signal;
a second side configured to transmit the first path signal along a vertical plane in a downwards direction of the transmission apparatus;
a third side configured to transmit the second path signal along a horizontal plane of the transmission apparatus; and
a fourth side configured to transmit the third path signal along the vertical plane in an upward direction of the transmission apparatus, and
the plurality of reception apparatuses associated with the second compute system is configured to receive each of the first path signal, the second path signal, and the third path signal generated and transmitted from the transmission apparatus associated with the first compute system.
