            Abstract : 
Summary form only given. We propose a secure and bandwidth-on-demand full-service access network that can be implemented with the existing hybrid fiber coaxial networks. Preliminary experimental results of half-duplex transmission with flexible bandwidth partitioning between upstream and downstream using integrated coherent transceivers are demonstrated.
