  • Abstract
    Proposed and experimentally demonstrated is a novel self-protected architecture for Ethernet passive optical networks. The protection of the traffic transported between the central office and customer terminals against feeder fibre cable breaks is carried out by switching and overlaying the disrupted transmission channels onto a separate Ethernet passive optical network using waveband separation.
