Abstract :
Today Energy Consumption is one of the fundamental topics also for telecommunication networks. In this paper, we report a numerical investigation about energy saving in a transport network both exploiting the transmission properties that permit to reduce 3R equipments and reducing optical links during low traffic periods.
