Article on DWDM. "Why You Should Start Thinking About DWDM Technology"

Excerpt:

"For example, if your network is bandwidth-constrained and you have to pull more fiber to add bandwidth, you could find yourself spending tens of thousands of dollars on labor and other factors just for installation. If you have to go across the street, the figure can jump by an order of magnitude.

On the other hand, if you can increase the amount of traffic your existing fiber carries, you can avoid those costs, as well as their associated delays, and simply plug in a new switch (or maybe just a new blade for your existing switch).

Only a few companies will be shipping this capability in the near term. Among the first is Extreme Networks, which began selling a 10-gigabit multiplexed intra-switch link for its high-end products last spring."

The component that allows Extreme to do this is provided by LMNE.
