First demonstration of an asynchronous optical packet switching matrix prototype for multi-terabit-class routers/switches

2001

An optical packet switching matrix for multi-terabit-class routers/switches has been prototyped. It is based on novel integrated optical gate arrays and asynchronous packet-mode receivers. Full asynchronous operation with 10 Gbit/s RZ optical packets is demonstrated for the first time.
