Systems pointed their photonic PCIe fabric at one of the hardest transparency tests they could find — and let the harness do the talking.

SupremeRAID™, parity offloaded to a single NVIDIA A10. A four-drive RAID 6 array of self-encrypting NVMe. And the entire data path carried over light — from host to drive shelf.

The result that defines the run: 43 GB/s of read bandwidth to a single host, with a 4K-random-read p99.99 tail under 120 microseconds and zero PCIe errors under sustained load. Light, in this configuration, behaves like copper — only longer.

Importantly, every one of those numbers was produced by a reproducible suite that runs end-to-end with a single command and writes machine-readable output. That matters because reproducibility is the difference between a demo and a deployable architecture.
