Abstract

Transparent frequency-division-multiplexed (FDM) networks have attracted increasing attention because of their scalability and flexibility.1 A dynamically reconfigurable frequency router1 is the most promising device for the network hub; the router is composed of M optical demultiplexers, N M × M optical switches, and M optical multiplexers,2 where M and N denote the numbers of hub ports and FDM channels, respectively. We report here another hub candidate that supports multicasting, and we demonstrate the hub based on an arrayed-waveguide-grating (AWG) multiplexer.
