Automatic Wavelength Service Demonstration Using 38 λ × 10.66 Gb/s Through 12 Independent Transparent WDM Nodes for Long-Haul Networking

We integrate a 38λ × 10.66 Gb/s long-reach transparent network through 12 nodes (non-recirculating loop) with up to 2500km reach, a configurable optical layer, network management system with OSC, signaling system (UNI), and optical protection capability to demonstrate technologies for automatic configurable wavelength services.
