  • Abstract
    We present a new all-optical multiwavelength sorter designed for asynchronous, variable-length packets. We demonstrate experimentally that the scheme efficiently implements sorting function without contention for 40 Gb/s variable packets at a BER of less than 10-9 without an error floor.
