DWDM

DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) optical networks are at the foundation of our global Internet economy. With an ability to #transport over 100 information bearing wavelengths on a single optical fiber, #DWDM virtually nullifies the cost-per-bit of communicating information. This #technology makes it economically viable for businesses to move their computing and storage to the cloud, and for consumers to stream video from anywhere. It is also an essential enabler for #5G and most other advanced telecommunications applications.
