A Versatile Point-to-Point Network Architecture with Multi-Rate Adaptability from 100 Gbit/s to 10 Gbit/s

PtP networks are optimized with optical switch and extended reach (25-50 km) to another CO to allow flexible bandwidth and power consumption. Different transmission capacities and scenarios are experimented with a DFB, from 100 Gbit/s to 10 Gbit/s with/without FEC and SOA.
