Title

Colorless and Directionless ROADM for Meshed Coupled-Core Multicore Fiber Networks

Abstract
We demonstrate the first meshed spatial-super-channel switching SDM network using field-deployed coupled-core multicore fibers with a 3 line-side, colorless, directionless ROADM. We evaluate 19 network scenarios including add&drop, bypass and grooming with 2 Tb/s granularity.
