Hardware Features Introduction
Figure 2-29 describes a CWDM ring configuration. In this example, four ports on an RS Switch/Router are configured
with CWDM GBICs tuned to different wavelengths. Each of the four GBICs are then connected with two fibers, for
full duplex connectivity, to a port configured for the same wavelength on a MUX/DEMUX module. All of the four
wavelengths are multiplexed on a single fiber in each direction (two fibers for full duplex connectivity). At four
different locations, a CWDM Add/Drop Module is used to demultiplex one of the wavelengths that is on the fiber and
routed to the GBIC with the corresponding wavelength.
Figure 2-29 CWDM Ring Configuration
Table 2-39 shows each of the GBICs used for configuring an RS-based CWDM network. For information on obtaining
the additional equipment used for an installation, contact your sales representative.
