A paradigm shift in optical communication networks is proposed, with the introduction of a new ecosystem devices and components capability transforming current point-to-point (with their entailed, limiting, electrical aggregation) into flexible, scalable cost-effective point-to-multipoint networks. In architecture, which better aligns hub-and-spoke traffic patterns observed today's metro access network segments, interoperability across variety transceivers operating at different speeds...
The various topologies, traffic patterns and cost targets of optical networks have prevented the deployment end-to-end solutions across multi-domains, optimization network as a whole. consequent limitations in flexibility, scalability, adaptability will become increasingly important with new applications, such 5G/6G. Coherent transceivers based on digital subcarrier multiplexing (DSCM) are proposed to address these current constraints. In particular, DSCM allows (i) design high-capacity...

Point-to-multipoint (P2MP) optical coherent transceivers, which take advantage of digital subcarrier multiplexing, can greatly simplify design, planning and operations in next-generation high-capacity metro aggregation networks.In this paper, we investigate their utilization over two complex network scenarios: urban/industrial suburban/rural.

A real-time implementation of a coherent optical pluggable module using digital sub-carrier (DSC) multiplexing has recently been demonstrated. Whilst these modules can support traditional point-to-point (P2P) applications, similar to e.g., 400ZR(+) – with at least the same performance, it is point-to-multi-point (P2MP) functionality that differentiates their capabilities from single-carrier implementation. The superior performance transmission and its insensitivity link effects, in...
