1. A method for optical communication, the method comprising:

  • in an optical system comprising an aggregating cassette and N optical transceivers, where N is an integer greater than one, said aggregating cassette comprising N multiplexers coupled to the N optical transceivers;

    generating, by each of said N optical transceivers, a modulated optical signal at a wavelength different from optical signals from others of said N transceivers, wherein each optical signal is split into N optical signals and modulated by modulators in said N optical transceivers;

    communicating, using optical fibers, said N modulated optical signals from each of said N optical transceivers to each of said N multiplexers; and

    multiplexing, using said N multiplexers, N modulated optical signals at N different wavelengths to output optical fibers.
