-8. (canceled)
A method for transmitting data packets between a first communications network node and a second communications network node of an communications optical network, comprising:
- reserving a data channel;
- transmitting a first data burst having aggregated data packets on the data channel;
- retaining the data channel for a consecutive transmission phase after transmitting the first data;
- transmitting additional data packets between the nodes during the consecutive transmission phase;
- and
- terminating the connection only when the data channel is at least partially required for transmitting a second data burst between a third communications network node and a fourth communications network node of new connection.
