Paper Abstract
We begin by reviewing the likely evolution of long-haul optical networks, and the role of optical cross connects (OXCs) in this evolution. We examine technologies for the switch fabrics in these OXCS, and focus on a guided-wave optical crossbar matrix based on total internal reflection. We argue that the reliability, modularity and scalability of crossbar matrix switches make them attractive for many applications.
