Inhalt:
We experimentally evaluate a filterless, all-optical network using architecture-on-demand nodes and MCF-based links for metro and inter-data centre communication. We demonstrate that bidirectional SDM networking with elastic super-channels can eliminate drop-and-waste while supporting hitless dynamic bandwidth allocation.
