Abstract :
The performance of an acousto-optic based 8-to-8 vector-matrix switch is reported. The feasibility of cascading multichannel acousto-optic cells is experimentally investigated for the first time. Characterisation is carried out from fibre to fibre with BER measurement at 10 Gbit/s and exhibits no crosstalk effects within WDM C-bandwidth, low polarisation sensitivity and fast switching.
