Abstract
An optical system includes a tunable laser that generates an optical signal at an output that is wavelength tunable. A wavelength router directs particular wavelength bands of the optical signal to particular ones of the plurality of outputs. An optical emitter emits an optical beam at an output, wherein tuning the tunable laser steers the emitted beam.
