Abstract

Compute clusters to implement a high performance computer are provided. For example, a compute cluster includes an optical redistribution box, and a processor module comprising M processors. The optical redistribution box includes N optical input connectors, N optical global connectors, and internal optical connections configured to connect each optical input connector to every optical global connector such that each duplex pair of a given optical input bundle connected connected to the optical global connectors. A first group of N processors (wherein N=M/2) of the processor module is optically connected to one of the optical input connectors via one of the optical input bundles, and second group of N processors of the processor module is optically connected to one of the optical global connectors via one of the optical global bundles.
