Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Standards

Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) is a technology that enhances the capacity of fiber optic cables by allowing multiple signals to travel simultaneously over different wavelengths of light. Each wavelength carries separate data, enabling high-speed communication over long distances without interference. DWDM standards specify how these wavelengths are organized and managed, ensuring compatibility between different systems and devices. This technology is vital for modern telecommunications, allowing internet service providers to deliver large amounts of data efficiently, supporting services like streaming and cloud computing.
