摘要
A four-channel optical time slot interchange switching experiment operating at 2-5 Gbit/s is reported. The system is based on a parallel switch fabric incorporating semiconductor laser amplifier gates and fibre delay lines. A sensitivity penalty of 0.2 dB for straight through operation, and 0.7 dB for fully interchanged time slots was observed.
