40-Gbit/s all-optical header processing for packet routing

We demonstrate 40-Gbit/s all-optical header processing using two ultrafast nonlinear interferometers to simultaneously forward two packets through a 2&2 spatial switch. Clear, open eye diagrams are observed, indicating low-error-rate forwarding decisions for packet routing.
