Abstract

Retrofitting 40Gb/s wavelengths multiplies by four times the effectiveness of the remaining capacity on existing DWDM systems. This pushes out the time frame required for overbuilding the network, minimizing the cost of incremental capacity and maximizing a carrier’s return on optical transport investment.
