Robust large-port-count hybrid switches with relaxed control tolerances

The control tolerances of large-port-count optical switches with up to 128×128 ports using the MZI-SOA hybrid design are investigated. The first quantitative analysis is presented showing tolerant control requirements of the hybrid switch design.
