Introducing optical transparency into core networks with R-OADMs
- New technologies such as Ultra Long Haul transmission and Reconfigurable Optical Add-Drop Multiplexers (R-OADMs) seem set to transform the economics of optical core network architectures as they become commercially available. Together, they allow an important first step towards optic al transpare

Analysis of the potential benefits of OXC-based intelligent optical networks
- This paper analyses three quantifiable benefits of Optical Cross Connect (OXC) architectures and how these are affected by network topology and traffic characteristics. The cost-saving benefits of shared protection, the revenue increasing potential of dynamic provisioning, and the efficiency gains o

The Benefits of Reconfiguration in Optical Networks
- As operators investigate the possibility of introducing OXCs into their transport networks, it is important to understand the benefits and advantages that such a technology option would bring about. In this paper we investigate the reconfiguration capability of OXC-enabled intelligent optical networ
