Abstract :
The authors describe an optical path cross-connect systems transport experiment performed by simulating a five-node network. Eight wavelength-division multiplexing signals, directly modulated at 2.5 Gbit/s, are confirmed to be transported over 330 km from the origination to the termination node via a cross-connection node. Optical path cross-connection is successfully performed with a crosstalk level of better than 35 dB
