Abstract
This paper describes a fully-operational prototype of an optical crossover network that was based on S-SEED arrays. The network provided for 32 input ports and 32 output ports, and it was operated at a maximum channel rate of 55.7 kbps. New node-types (2-modules) and 2D to 3D transformations of crossover networks are also discussed.
