Abstract

Wavelength Selectable Switch Technologies -MEMS, LCoS, LC, DLP -Each has design strengths and weaknesses MEMS: strong isolation, small size, low IL, challenged atten accuracy LCoS: strong atten accuracy, flex spectrum, challenged isolation LC: strong atten accuracy, challenged size DLP: small size, flex spectrum, limited port count Colorless, Directionless, Contentionless Networks -More efficient use of infrastructure -Requires more complex wavelength switching components Higher port count Multiple input, multiple output ?? 2011 Optical Society of America.
