Abstract

Data traffic is increasing in an enterprise network. In order to switch a rage of traffic, high speed switch is developed by many venders. However the high speed switch consumes large power consumption. In this paper, we proposed 3 types of optical enterprise network architectures which accommodate passive optical equipments. And also, we compared our proposal networks with a present enterprise network about power consumption. Our proposed network can save about 50% of power consumption.
