WDM/CWDM/DWDM: Segmentation Primer-Maximizing Capacity for Revenue
Overview Node segmentation provides a good tool for cable operators to increase targeted ser1ces, such as EOD, Internet data, and telephony. In many cases, cable operators have limited fibers and/or they could reclaim fibers for emerging opportunities such as commercial services. WDMICWDMIDWDM techniques offer better utilization of the existing fiber resources. Simple WDM techniques can double the fiber capacity, and CWDMIDWDM techniques can Increase the capacity multiple times. Recently, equipment vendors have developed new solutions for multi-wavelength downstream broadcast transport that are more cost-effective and more operationally friendly than what was previously available. Cable operators need to evaluate their requirements and select the best solutions that fit them.

Light Trails: A Sub-Wavelength Solution for Optical Networking
All-optical networks are able to transport data from source to destination entirely in the optical domain. This is a departure from current optical networks that rely on Optical-Electrical-Optical (OEO) conversion...
Switching and Traffic Grooming in WDM Networks
This paper considers the role of switching in minimizing the number of electronic ports (e.g., SONET ADMs) in an optical network that carries sub-wavelength traffic. Providing nodes with the ability...
Metro Ethernet Gives Danish Service Provider the Power to Deliver Triple Play
To enable EnergiMidt to offer broadband, TV and telephony services for both residential and business customers. A carrier-grade Ethernet infrastructure covering the whole of the region, based on Nortel Optical...
