Abstract
A large-capacity optical router is disclosed that exchanges data traffic such as IP packets, Ethernet frames, etc., at high speed in units of optical frames. The large-capacity optical router uses an electric buffer including input ports, output ports, an add port for inputting data received from a lower IP router, a drop port for outputting data to the lower IP router, a wavelength division demultiplexing section for wavelength-division-demultiplexing wavelength signals input through the input ports and the add port, an input interface section for converting optical frames from the wavelength division demultiplexing section into electric signals, and an optical switch for performing a high-speed switching of the optical frames from the input interface section. The large-capacity optical router also includes an output interface section for processing the optical frames output from the optical switch, a wavelength division multiplexing section for wavelength-division-multiplexing outputs of the output interface section and transmitting the multiplexed outputs to another large-capacity optical router, a drop interface section for processing the optical frames from the wavelength division multiplexer to the lower IP router, a header processing section for recognizing header information, an optical switch control section for controlling a connection state of the optical switch, a header reinserting section for reinserting headers into outputs of the optical router, and an edge traffic aggregator including of an ingress part for converting IP packets input from the lower IP router into optical frames and an egress part for converting the optical frames into IP packets and transmitting the converted packets to the IP router.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
