Open Disaggregated Networks are communication systems built from modular, interoperable components rather than proprietary solutions. NEC Labs America develops AI-driven methods to optimize these networks, enabling cost efficiency, scalability, and resilience. Open Disaggregated Networks allow service providers to mix and match hardware and software, reducing vendor lock-in while enhancing innovation in optical networking and distributed systems.
We experimentally demonstrate real time mode division multiplexing free space optical communication with commercial 400G open and disaggregated transponders. As proof of concept,using HG00, HG10, and HG01 modes, we transmit 1.2 Tb/s/l (3´1l´400Gb/s) error free.
