WDM networking experiment including all-optical crossconnect cascade and transmission over 320 km G.652 fibre at up to 10 Gbit/s

A demonstrator for optical multiwavelength transport networks has been upgraded to show the cascade of up to three 4/spl times/4, 8-channel crossconnects, interconnected by 160 km G.652 fibre. Performances are presented with emphasis on signal reshaping capabilities.
