Abstract :
We report on the design and field performance evaluation of an embedded, out-of-band, 1510-nm data communication network (DCN) at OC-3c data rate for the eight-wavelength, reconfigurable MONET washington D.C. testbed. The results of this field trial demonstrate that a multinode control and management system can depend on such a highly reliable DCN.
