  2. Space Development Agency (SDA) cops to issues with scaling its Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA). The agency is grappling with a 2-3 month schedule slip. Core issues include:

    Satellite Contact Failures: SDA and its vendors have struggled with the on-orbit checkout process – aka an inability to establish contact with one of its satellites launched in late 2025.

    Component Scarcity: Sustained shortages of optical communications terminals (OCTs) and encryption devices continue to serve as the “critical path” for all vendors.

    Launch Schedule Pressure: The next scheduled mission, T1TL-A, is ~ 4 months behind schedule due to the 45-day government shutdown, a launch rocket tech glitz, and issues with onboard software for satellites. satnews.com/2026/03/08/space-d

  7. Discussed AI's impact on optical networks at @Nokia Wavelength 2025! With massive bandwidth/latency needs from #AI:
    1️⃣ AI Exchanges emerge for training (connecting GPUs like @Coreweave/@nebiusai to data).
    2️⃣ IXPs crucial for inference (connecting edge AI like @Gcore_official/@CloudFlare/@Microsoft to users).
    Big shifts in interconnection! #Networking #EdgeComputing #OpticalNetworks
