    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include an active mm-wave interconnect. In an embodiment, the active mm-wave interconnect includes a dielectric waveguide that is coupled to a first connector and a second connector. According to an embodiment, each of the first and second connectors may include a mm-wave engine. In an embodiment, the mm-wave engines may include a power management die, a modulator die, a demodulator die, a mm-wave transmitter die, and a mm-wave receiver die. Additional embodiments may include connectors that interface with predefined interfaces, such as small form-factor pluggables (SFP), quad small form-factor pluggables (QSFP), or octal small form-factor pluggables (OSFP). Accordingly, embodiments of the invention allow for plug and play functionality with existing servers and other high performance computing systems.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a mm-wave waveguide connector and methods of forming such devices. In an embodiment the mm-wave waveguide connector may include a plurality of mm-wave launcher portions, and a plurality of ridge based mm-wave filter portions each communicatively coupled to one of the mm-wave launcher portions. In an embodiment, the ridge based mm-wave filter portions each include a plurality of protrusions that define one or more resonant cavities. Additional embodiments may include a multiplexer portion communicatively coupled to the plurality of ridge based mm-wave filter portions and communicative coupled to a mm-wave waveguide bundle. In an embodiment the plurality of protrusions define resonant cavities with openings between 0.5 mm and 2.0 mm, the plurality of protrusions are spaced apart from each other by a spacing between 0.5 mm and 2.0 mm, and wherein the plurality of protrusions have a thickness between 200 µm and 1,000 µm
