Keywords:Design of node architectures including optical core/metro protection and restoration, Disaggregation and NFV/SDN techniques in optical core/access networks

We present an SDM network and node architecture based on sliceable spatial-mode, spatialcore and spectral transceivers, and a centralized SDN controller with NETCONF and TAPI for the management of SDM super-channels by multiple NFV orchestrators
