Experimental Demonstration of Optical-Analog-Optical Wavelength Conversion for Optical Cross-Connect
We experimentally show that optical-analog-optical tunable wavelength converters allow for a 2000-km-class WDM transmission with 6 wavelength conversions. The results confirm the physical feasibility of optical cross-connects incorporating the converters in the core network.
