Demonstration of a 960 Gb/s (96 x 12.3 Gb/s) Transpacific OADM Network in a Re-Circulating Single-Loop Transmission Experiment

We present the first laboratory demonstration of transoceanic OADM networks. Using a new method for study of networks in re-circulating single-loop transmission experiments, we demonstrate successful transpacific 96x12.3Gb/s DWDM-networking, including transmission over various OADM branches.
