Zusammenfassung:An optical communication system includes a plurality of optical system nodes, a plurality of optical space switches and a plurality of optical fibers. The plurality of optical system nodes each includes at least one reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM). The optical system nodes each have at least one client side port and at least one line side port. Each optical space switch is operatively coupled to the line side port of one of the plurality of optical system nodes. Each of the optical fibers couples one of the optical space switches to another of the optical space switches.
