Integrated IP-Optical Networks. Demonstration of DWDM Router-to-Router IP Transport Over 574km SMF Fiber Link Using 11.1Gbit/s OTN Pluggable Interface with Integrated G.709 and FEC

摘要

We identify the key requirements for an open system approach to integrated IP over DWDM optical transport. Using, for the first time, DWDM XENPAK interfaces with integrated G.709 framing we demonstrate error-free connectivity of core IP routers across a 574km amplified link with end-to-end G.709 FEC and OAM functions.
