Abstract
High order digital coherent modulation schemes and adaptive modulation techniques allow flexible rate DWDM line transmission to maximize the transmission capacity of an optical path. We show that FlexE on the client side enables low cost DCI transport devices to take advantage of flexible rate line transmission without the need to incorporate scalable grooming fabrics in the transport device.
