We describe the first experimental demonstration of an asynchronous digital optical regenerator. Error-free regeneration of 10-Gb/s optical packets up to 40000 bits long has been demonstrated without clock recovery. It is demonstrated that the optical nodes in this network may operate with independent clocks, within certain practical limits, offering the possibility of arbitrary mesh optical time-division multiplexing networks.
