As optical networks evolve, the need for efficient WSS architectures becomes critical. In the ALLEGRO project we are developing a system that optimizes signal routing and enhances network flexibility.
πΉ Input WSS β Directs all SCs from incoming roots to a dedicated input root port (π΄ red), which connects to the power splitter. SCs from leaves are handled by input leaf ports (β« black).
πΉ Output WSS β Collects all SCs to outgoing roots via the output root port (β« black), which connects to the power combiner. SCs to leaves are served by output leaf ports (π΄ red).
πΉ Fibre Patch Panel (Optional) β Assigns power splitter outputs to different output WSSs and connects power combiner inputs to different input WSSs, ensuring seamless signal distribution.
This scalable and high-performance architecture enhances traffic management, signal routing, and network adaptability, pushing the boundaries of next-generation optical networking.
Excited to drive innovation in flexible, high-capacity optical networks!
