  • Abstract
    We investigate the power consumption of IP-over-WDM networks for 100G coherent systems when varying optical reach values. Benefits of optimal reach depends on the slope of the reach-related consumption function. We also show that “greening” transponders has a linear-like impact on the reduction of network power consumption.
