Abstract
After a brief review of the CDC-ROADM technologies for dynamic network systems, we demonstrate silicon photonics based transponder aggregators for 8-degree CDC-ROADM systems. Transponder aggregators in such systems play a key role in realization of the CDC function between multiple input/output fibers and multiple transponders.
