... an IEEE standard ?
Why not !
IMO at least the days (in fact years) using PCIe-technic are count down
What CAI does is all without the oldfashioned, restricting PCIe
And PCIe is until now within the classic computer-architecture - until POET-optical engines came.
This is also what Suresh explained just weeks ago :
electronics connections will be replaced by photonics - SOON.

The classic computer archicture is being the past right now.
POET's OE is the future of data communication, does'nt matter CAI, luxshare or foxconn
I'm sure the BIG are working intensively to achieve the change - quiet and secret at all until results.
