DWDM Configuration
ADVA system supports 32 protected wavelengths (?) per fibre ring
Initial configuration 8?:
- 3? for inter-switch backbone connections
- 1? for R&D/test (e.g. dedicated multicast overlay)
- 4? can provide up to 12 unprotected private interconnects
Later configurations will exploit multiplexing capability of ADVA equipment:
- up to 8x1 Gigabit channels per 10G ?
Remaining ? can be used to increase backbone or PI capacity in 1G or 10G increments
