Photonic Gateway and Protocol-Independent End-to-End Optical-Connection Provisioning in All-Photonic Metro-Access Converged Network

The All-Photonics Metro-Access Converged Network (APN) aims to achieve a flat and simple architecture that even covers access areas and represents the evolution of optical transport. Electrical processing functions such as exchange, multiplexing, and switching are uniformly placed at the border of t...
