Thanks for the great summary Rainer.

Question for the board. When POET mentions Very Short Reach as "Longer Term" are they talking on board optics?

I haven't been able to find a definitive standard length on the various reaches.

"Also on the homepage, but in the "Broad Application Space" section, they refined the old list

• Data Communications and Next Generation Data Centers
• SMAC (Social Networking, Mobility, Analytics and Cloud)
• Lighting and Displays
• Medical, Industrial and Automotive
• Defense and Security
• Consumer
• Internet of Things (IOT)

to a new one that distiguishes between near-term and longer-term:

• Near-term:
  • Photonic Sensing
  • Data Communications  (long, medium, short reach)
• Longer-Term:
  • Health Care
  • Mobility
  • Automotive
  • Consumer
  • Data Communications  (very short reach)"
