Abstract

We present the first experimental demonstration of a multi-granularity optical-cross-connect node toward 100-Tbit/s scalability. We successfully show 10.24-Tbit/s throughput with completely error-free operation and an 80-Gbit/s (2 times 40-Gbit/s) optical-virtual-concatenation function between different routes.
