    摘要: A multiplexing/demultiplexing apparatus used in wavelength division multiplexed passive optical subscriber networks comprises a multiplexing/demultiplexing means each having a natural number N input and output ports, wherein wavelength divided signals in one direction inputted through the N−1 input ports are multiplexed onto one output port, and simultaneously wavelength division multiplexed signals in the other direction inputted through the remainder one input port are demultiplexed onto the remainder N−1 output ports. According to the present invention it is possible to implement economical and efficient wavelength division multiplexed passive optical subscriber networks, by including two WGR's, one at the central office and one at the remote node to perform simultaneous multiplexing and demultiplexing of signals in upstream and downstream, and employing an erbium-doped fiber amplifier to be able to use a low-cost light source such as a light-emitting diode.

    摘要: This invention relates to a multicast-capable optical cross-connect with layered modularity. Due to its layered modularity, this invention can be applied to many differently structured networks and provides easier maintenance than conventional optical cross-connects and efficient preparation for network evolution or node upgrade. By exploiting its simple elementary switches, multicast-capable optical cross-connect with layered modularity minimizes the switching time. For a given node, M input fiber ports supply multiplexed optical signals from other nodes in the network and m input fiber ports supply multiplexed optical signals generated from the node. M+m 1×M optical power splitters 311, 312, 313, 314, 315 distribute multiplexed input signals. A drop link module 331 selects signals to be dropped at the node where the optical cross-connect is installed. M transmission link modules 321, 322, 323 select signals to be transmitted to other nodes out of input signals.
