Hybrid 10 Gb/s and 40 Gb/s [Optical System]

[Damian MarekParticipant]

Question:

I am interested in designing multichannel WDM systems where each channel is at either 10 Gb/s or 40Gb/s. Are there any examples of this type of network?

Answer:

Please find enclosed an example of such a WDM optical link. This example has a mix of both 10G and 40G signals entering a multiplexer. The 10G signals are obtained by dividing the bit rate by 4, since the simulation bit rate is set to 40 Gb/s.

There are also more examples of 10 Gb/s or 40 Gb/s systems in the examples folder OptiSystem 12 Samples\WDM Systems. There are also plenty of resources at:
