An optically-switch data network includes an optical data bus, an optical wavelength bus, and multiple nodes connected by the optical data bus and the optical wavelength bus. A first node determines that it has communication information to transmit to a second node, and determines if a first subscription signal is present on the optical wavelength bus. The first subscription signal includes a target frequency. If the first subscription signal is not present on the optical wavelength bus, the first node injects an optical communication signal onto the optical data bus. The optical communication signal includes the communication information and a carrier wave. The carrier wave includes the target frequency. The second node receives the optical communication signal using the optical data bus. If the first subscription signal is present on the optical wavelength bus, injection of the optical communication signal onto the optical data bus is postponed.

Optically-switched data network

A system includes a first optical frequency comb generator that generates a first parametrically generated comb using parametric mixing comprising a first plurality of optical waves including at least one first optical wave. The system includes a second optical frequency comb generator that generates a second parametrically generated comb using parametric mixing comprising a second plurality of optical waves. The second optical frequency comb generator receives the at least one first optical wave and generates the second plurality of optical waves using the at least one first optical wave. Respective center frequencies of one or more optical waves of the first plurality of optical waves are aligned in frequency with respective center frequencies of one or more optical waves of the second plurality of optical waves.
