14 OXC (Optical Cross Connect) OXCs are installed at the hub nodes to switch fiber or lambda These OXCs are all optical, and therefore independent of the transmission rate and framing, which will make use of new technologies, e.g. 10 GbE, easier Network resource management based on GMPLS is developing

15 Maturity of MEMs is not essential Significant innovations are expected on top of OXC or combination with L3 equipment Why OXC?
