  • Low-loss Industrial Ethernet Reconfigurable Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer

    Low-loss Industrial Ethernet Reconfigurable Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer

    The Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) switch is built on a proprietary micro-optics and micro-actuator platform with athermal grating packaging for stable wavelength performance. An Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (OADM) is a Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networking device that has access to all wavelengths on a fiber and allows for specific wavelengths to be dropped or added at a location while also allowing other wavelengths to optically pass through the site. In optical communication, a reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) is a form of optical add-drop multiplexer that adds the ability to remotely switch traffic from a wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) system at the wavelength layer. With ongoing advancements, OADMs have evolved from FOADMs.
