Keywords:Switching Technologies, Subsystems and Advanced Functionality, 2D and 3D MEMS/LCOS switches including wavelength selective switches, Rapidly reconfigurable switching networks including Wavelength (spectrum) routing and assignment for wavelength-switched optical networks

We demonstrate power efficient and flexible baud-rate switching for Nyquist OTDM signals with a wavelength selective switch. We successfully switch between 40 and 80-Gboud/s signals with switching speed of 15 ms.
