  2. Wavelength-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength-division...

    EWDM combines 1 Gbit/s Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing (CWDM) connections using SFPs and GBICs with 10 Gbit/s Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) connections using XENPAK, X2 or XFP DWDM modules. The Enhanced WDM system can use either passive or boosted DWDM connections to allow a longer range for the connection.

  4. List of laser types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

    Wavelengths of commercially available lasers. Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser ...

    This differs from WDM system transponders, including both coarse and dense wavelength-division multiplexing systems (CWDM and DWDM) that currently support OC-192 SONET signals, which can normally support thin-SONET–framed 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

  6. Arrayed waveguide grating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrayed_waveguide_grating

    These devices are capable of multiplexing many wavelengths into a single optical fiber, thereby increasing the transmission capacity of optical networks considerably. [1] The devices are based on a fundamental principle of optics, which states that light waves of different wavelengths do not interfere linearly with each other.

  7. Optical add-drop multiplexer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_add-drop_multiplexer

    An optical add-drop multiplexer (OADM) is a device used in wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) systems for multiplexing and routing different channels of light into or out of a single-mode fiber (SMF). This is a type of optical node, which is generally used for the formation and the construction of optical telecommunications networks. "Add ...

  8. 10 Gigabit Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10_Gigabit_Ethernet

    It uses four separate laser sources operating at 3.125 Gbit/s and Coarse wavelength-division multiplexing with four unique wavelengths around 1310 nm. Its 8b/10b PCS is defined in IEEE 802.3 Clause 48 and its Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayer in Clause 53.

  9. Dark fibre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_fibre

    Managed dark fibre is a form of wavelength-division multiplexed access to otherwise dark fibre where a pilot signal is beamed into the fibre by the fibre provider for management purposes using a transponder tuned to an assigned wavelength. Virtual dark fibre using wavelength multiplexing allows a service provider to offer individual wavelengths ...
