Overview
• Wave Division Mutiplexing (WDM) multiplexes multiple optical carrier signals on a single optical fiber by using different wavelengths (colors) of laser light to carry different signals. – Bit rate and protocol independent

Components: Multiplexer
• All different signals from transmitters are combined into one signal
• The signal consists of several wavelengths, each containing a different signal
• Gratings, prisms and thin films

OverviewSub-Lambda Multiplexing
• Multiplexing a single low rate data connection onto a wavelength is very inefficient.– For example, if a FastEthernet connection is transported on a
WDM wavelength, only 4% of the bandwidth is used. This assumes the wavelength is capable of transporting 2.5 Gbps.
• To better utilize bandwidth many vendors support sub-lambda multiplexing. – The cards that support this are often referred to as DataMux or
Muxponder cards.– Muxponder cards have multiple ports (FE, GE, etc.). These
cards multiplex the data flows and transports them onto a wavelength.

Benefits of WDM
• WDM technology allows multiple connections over one fiber thus reducing fiber plant requirement. – This is mainly beneficial for long-haul applications.– Campus applications require a cost benefit analysis.
• WDM technology can also provide fiber redundancy.
• WDM provides a managed fiber service.
