Abstract
Wavelength conversion for an optical packet with an optically multiplexed
40-Gbit/s payload and a 2.5-Gbit/s label has been demonstrated for the first time to
our knowledge in an optical-label-switched network. The power penalties caused by
wavelength conversion for the 40-Gbit/s payload and the 2.5-Gbit/s label are 1.1 and
2.3 dB, respectively. We have also demonstrated that the optical packet is
successfully transmitted over two hops with a record transmission distance of 200
km.
