A significant feature of this network is the transparency length of the optical signal path, determined by the properties of the transmission channel and crossconnect.deoptical fibre networksoptical interconnectionstechnological forecastingwavelength division multiplexingoptically transparent networksfuture communication systemsoptical frequency multiplexingoptical crossconnectstransparency length621journal article
