Abstract: There is provided a method of clock management in a packet data network (PDN) implementing a time-transfer protocol and a clock controller configured to operate therein. The clock controller is configured to: obtain topology data informative of a master clock node and a slave clock node constituting end points of a PTP path in the PDN and further informative of at least part of transit nodes of said PTP path; periodically obtain data informative of queue size and link rate characterizing, during a collection period, the at least part of transit nodes in master-slave (MS) and slave-master (SM) directions; for each collection period, use the obtained queue-related data to estimate queue-induced delay asymmetry of the PTP path; and send the estimated value of queue-induced delay asymmetry to the slave node, the estimated value to be used by a clock residing on the slave node as delay asymmetry correction parameter.

Abstract: The invention relates to an optical interference filter device which defines a first periodic filter frequency response between a first filter output port and a filter input port and a second periodic filter frequency response having the same free spectral range as the first periodic frequency response between a second filter output port and the filter input port. The first and second periodic filter frequency responses are shifted versus each other by a predetermined optical frequency distance.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optical multichannel transmission and/or reception module, in particular for high-bitrate digital optical signals, with a housing having multiple optical input ports and/or optical output ports and containing an electric assembly and an essentially flat opto-electric module connected electrically to the electric assembly. Multiple electro-optic transmission elements and/or multiple opto-electric reception elements are located on or in the opto-electric module. The opto-electric module has an optical coupling area on one of its surfaces that is connected to the respective first ends of multiple optical waveguides. The opto-electric module has multiple optic paths for optical connection of each first end of an optic waveguide with an associated electro-optic transmission element and/or an associated opto-electric reception element.

Abstract: The subject matter described herein includes using a path computation element communication protocol (PCEP) as a signaling protocol during dynamic service provisioning in networks. According to one aspect of the subject matter described herein, a network uses a hard state point-to-point protocol as a signaling protocol during dynamic service provisioning in a control plane of the network. In one implementation, the point-to-point protocol is a path computation element communication protocol (PCEP).
