

A process where multiple analog message signals or
digital data streams are combined into one signal
over a shared medium.










Multiple channels of information carried over
the same fiber, each using an individual
wavelength.
A communicates with X and B with Y as if a
dedicated fiber is used for each signal.
Typically one channel utilizes 1320 nm and the
other 1550 nm.
Broad channel spacing, several hundred nm.
WDM is a way of transmitting more data by
separating channels by "color".
1. Advantages:




Fewer wires or channels to transmit and
receive data.
A single fiber-optic cable can handle dozens of
channels, instead of using 12 cables, you only
use 1 .
2. Disadvantages:




Complex transmitters and receivers.
They must be wide-band, which means they
are more expensive and possibly less reliable.



Multiple channels of information carried over
the same fiber, each using an individual
wavelength.
Dense WDM is WDM utilizing closely spaced
channels.
Channel spacing reduced to 1.6 nm and less .
Cost effective way of increasing capacity
without replacing fiber.
Commercial systems available with capacities
of 32 channels and upwards; > 80 Gb/s per
fiber.







Multiple channels of information carried over
the same fiber, each using an individual
wavelength.
Unlike WDM channels are much closer
together.

Transmitter T1 communicates with Receiver R1
as if connected by a dedicated fiber as does T2
and R2 and so on.
1. Advantages:
 Greater fiber capacity.
 Easier network expansion.
 DWDM can give increases in capacity which
TDM cannot match.
 Incremental cost for a new channel is low.
2. Disadvantages:
 Not cost-effective for low channel numbers.
 Introduces another element, the frequency
domain, to network design and management.
 SONET/SDH network management systems
not well equipped to handle DWDM
topologies.
 DWDM performance monitoring and
protection methodologies developing.

ITU Recommendation is G.692 "Optical interfaces
for multichannel systems with optical amplifiers“.
G.692 includes a number of DWDM channel plans.
Channel separation set at:
50, 100 and 200 GHz .
Equivalent to approximate wavelength spacings of
0.4, 0.8 and 1.6 nm.
Channels lie in the range 1530.3 nm to 1567.1 nm
(so-called C-Band).
Newer "L-Band" exists from about 1570 nm to 1620
nm.
