Abstract :
We propose and demonstrate an optical flat datacenter network based on scalable optical switch system with optical flow control. 4×4 dynamic switch operation at 40 Gb/s reported 300ns minimum end-to-end latency (including 25m transmission link) and <;10-6 packet loss for 0.4 load with buffer size of 16 packets.
