First Page Mentioned (By Name) : ch. “Condemned Complex” – pg. 77

A universal optical interface is an interface designed to communicate through optical signals (such as with fiber optics, lasers, etc...). These signals transmit from one port to another, altering wavelength and intensity to process the information. While nothing can be truly universal, devices with universal programming are capable of communicating in terms basic enough, on broad enough levels, that most computers can process the information being transmitted and received.

Since the people of Geb use magic as the fundamental base for their computer systems, almost all of the computer systems on Geb are considered universal in nature.
