A flexible optical switch and control system with dynamic bandwidth allocation is experimentally assessed to enable reconfigurable DCNs. Experiments validate the flexible system achieves 3.15 µs end-to-end latency (improving 48.61%) and decreases one order magnitude of packet loss, compared with the scheme with fixed connections.
