An information processing system, includes several processors, each having
at least one optical fiber input and at least one optical fiber output; a
controller having an optical fiber input and at least one fiber output;
fibers, bundled for transmitting information; and a fiber bundle
redriver, coupled to the controller, having an input channel and an
output channel, for simultaneously redriving an optical signal received
from any selected one of the plurality of input fibers onto substantially
all of the plurality of output fibers. The fiber output of each of the
plurality of processors and the at least one fiber output of the
controller are respectively is coupled to the input channel of the fiber
bundle redriver, and the at least one fiber input of each of said
plurality of processors and the fiber input of the controller are
respectively coupled to the output channel of the fiber bundle redriver.
