ServeTheHome toured AWS' in-house networking lab, covering switches from 3.2 Tbps to 102.4 Tbps (1.6T OSFP ports, not yet in volume), a 12.8 Tbps switch with 16 FPGAs encrypting every port, and a dedicated satellite-referenced timing network. It also saw 64-wavelength DWDM modules and hollow-core fiber with about 33% lower latency.
