Core router History

1 At that time, several breakthroughs in fiber optic telecommunications

(notably DWDM and EDFA) technologies combined to lower

bandwidth costs that in turn drove a sudden dramatic increase in core link

speeds: by 2000, a core link operated at 2.5 Gbit/s and core

Internet companies were planning for 10 Gbit/s speeds.

Soliton - Solitons in fiber optics

1 The GH jitter requires sophisticated, expensive compensatory solutions

that ultimately makes dense wavelength-division multiplexing

(DWDM) soliton transmission in the field unattractive, compared to the

conventional non-return-to-zero/return-to-zero

paradigm

Diode laser - Distributed feedback lasers

1 Distributed feedback lasers (DFB) are the most common transmitter type in DWDM-

systems

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Synchronous Digital Hierarchy - Path virtual envelope

1 DWDM circuits are the basis for all modern submarine communications cable systems and other long-haul

circuits.

Synchronous Digital Hierarchy - SONET/SDH and relationship to 10 Gigabit Ethernet

1 However, 10 Gigabit Ethernet does not explicitly provide any interoperability at

the bitstream level with other SDH/SONET systems. 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.

Distributed feedback laser

1 Integrated DFB lasers are often used in optical communication

applications, such as DWDM where a tunable laser signal is desired as well as in sensing where extreme narrow

line width is required, or in gas sensing applications, where the signal of the absorbing gas is

detected while wavelength tuning the DFB laser

Dark fibre - Market

1 Dark fibre capacity is typically used by network operators to build SONET

and dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks, usually involving meshes of self-

healing rings

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Dark fibre - Variations

1 DWDM systems generally require central management because their

closely spaced wavelengths are subject to disruption by signals on adjacent wavelengths that are not

within tightly controlled parameters, especially if amplification is required for signal transmission over 100km.

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Dark fibre - Rate of expansion

1 The availability of dense wavelength-division multiplexing DWDM and

coarse wavelength division multiplexing CWDM is rapidly

bringing down the cost of networking, and further progress

seems assured.

Dense WDM - WDM systems

1 Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) uses the same transmission window but with denser

channel spacing

Dense WDM - WDM systems

1 Coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) in contrast to conventional WDM and DWDM uses increased channel spacing to allow less sophisticated and thus cheaper

transceiver designs

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Dense WDM - WDM systems

1 WDM, DWDM and CWDM are based on the same concept of using

multiple wavelengths of light on a single fiber, but differ in the spacing

of the wavelengths, number of channels, and the ability to amplify

the multiplexed signals in the optical space

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Dense WDM

1 Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) refers originally to optical signals multiplexed within the 1550nm band so as to leverage the capabilities (and cost) of Optical

amplifier#Erbium-doped fibre amplifiers|erbium doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs), which are

effective for wavelengths between approximately 1525–1565nm (C band), or 1570–1610nm (L band)

Dense WDM - DWDM systems

1 These factors of smaller volume and higher performance result in DWDM

systems typically being more expensive than CWDM.

Dense WDM - DWDM systems

1 Recent innovations in DWDM transport systems include pluggable

and software-tunable transceiver modules capable of operating on 40 or 80 channels. This dramatically

reduces the need for discrete spare pluggable modules, when a handful of pluggable devices can handle the

full range of wavelengths.

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Dense WDM - Wavelength converting transponders

1 At this stage, some details concerning Wavelength Converting

Transponders should be discussed, as this will clarify the role played by current DWDM technology as an

additional optical transport layer. It will also serve to outline the

evolution of such systems over the last 10 or so years.

https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

Dense WDM - Wavelength converting transponders

1 As stated above, wavelength converting transponders served

originally to translate the transmit wavelength of a client-layer signal

into one of the DWDM system's internal wavelengths in the 1550nm

band (note that even external wavelengths in the 1550nm will most likely need to be translated, as they

will almost certainly not have the required frequency stability

tolerances nor will it have the optical power necessary for the system's

EDFA).

Dense WDM - Wavelength converting transponders

1 ; 1R: Retransmission. Basically, early transponders were garbage in garbage out in

that their output was nearly an analogue 'copy' of the received optical signal, with little

signal cleanup occurring. This limited the reach of early DWDM systems because the signal had to be handed off to a client-layer

receiver (likely from a different vendor) before the signal deteriorated too far. Signal monitoring was basically confined to optical domain parameters such as received power.

Dense WDM - Reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM)

1 This is costly, and in some systems requires that all active traffic be

removed from the DWDM system, because inserting or removing the

wavelength-specific cards interrupts the multi-wavelength optical signal.

Dense WDM - Enhanced WDM

1 Cisco's Enhanced WDM system combines 1 GB Coarse Wave Division

Multiplexing (CWDM) connections using SFPs and GBICs with 10 GB Dense Wave Division Multiplexing

(DWDM) connections using XENPAK, X2, or XFP DWDM modules. These DWDM connections can either be

passive or boosted to allow a longer range for the connection

CWDM - DWDM systems

1 These factors of smaller volume and higher performance result in DWDM

systems typically being more expensive than CWDM.

CWDM - DWDM systems

1 Recent innovations in DWDM transport systems include pluggable

and software-tunable transceiver modules capable of operating on 40

or 80 channels. This dramatically reduces the need for discrete spare pluggable modules, when a handful of pluggable devices can handle the

full range of wavelengths.

CWDM - Wavelength-converting transponders

1 At this stage, some details concerning wavelength-converting

transponders should be discussed, as this will clarify the role played by current DWDM technology as an

additional optical transport layer. It will also serve to outline the

evolution of such systems over the last 10 or so years.

CWDM - Wavelength-converting transponders

1 As stated above, wavelength-converting transponders served

originally to translate the transmit wavelength of a client-layer signal

into one of the DWDM system's internal wavelengths in the 1,550nm

band (note that even external wavelengths in the 1,550nm will

most likely need to be translated, as they will almost certainly not have

the required frequency stability tolerances nor will it have the optical

power necessary for the system's EDFA).

CWDM - Wavelength-converting transponders

1 ; 1R: Retransmission. Basically, early transponders were garbage in garbage out in

that their output was nearly an analogue copy of the received optical signal, with little

signal cleanup occurring. This limited the reach of early DWDM systems because the signal had to be handed off to a client-layer

receiver (likely from a different vendor) before the signal deteriorated too far. Signal monitoring was basically confined to optical domain parameters such as received power.

SONET/SDH - SONET/SDH and relationship to 10-gigabit Ethernet

1 However, 10-gigabit Ethernet does not explicitly provide any interoperability at

the bitstream level with other SDH/SONET systems. 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.
