We propose and demonstrate a Port-Alternated Switch-and-Select architecture that has both low insertion loss and low path dependency. Using silicon photonics platform, we realized an 8 χ 8 switch with 5.7-dB Fiber-to-Fiber insertion loss.

We analyze more than 100 subsea experiments with various configurations of rates, modulations, powers, reach and show a format and rate agnostic, accurate QoT prediction tool. We particularly show the impact of signal droop and the connection between GAWBS models based on spectral measurements and system impact.
