Abstract
To support optical multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) technology in an optical network, we have demonstrated subcarrier label swapping in a 96.2 km, three-node experiment, by using optical single-sideband modulation and an optical notch filter. At each intermediate switching node, an old subcarrier label can be suppressed by 25 dB, while the 2.5 Gb/s payload experienced only 2 dB loss.
