Abstract
We present results of the experimental characterization of an optical node supporting swapping of IM/FSK labeled signals. Specially, we focus on the performance of a MZI wavelength converter based on cross-phase modulation. (XPM). Simulation results and measurement of the chirp of converted signals operating at 2.5 Gb/s and 10 Gb/s are presented. Conclusions are drawn regarding the implications of the wavelength converter performance. on the quality of the label swapping and signal data integrity.
