Optical Cross-Connect Module
An optical cross-connect (OXC) is a device used by telecommunications carriers to switch high-speed optical signals in a fiber optic network, such as an optical mesh network. In the 1980s, when transmission speeds supported by optical fibers increased from 45 Mbit/s to 2. Compared with traditional ROADM based on separate boards and inter-board fiber patch cords, OXC uses integrated interconnections to build an all-optical switching resource pool, achieving highly integrated, fiber. An OXC is a network element that performs optical switching of signals—typically WDM or DWDM channels—routing them from any input port to any output port while remaining in the optical domain.
