Explaining what CWDM is, how it is achieved, and why it should be deployed, Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing: Technologies and Applications merges coverage of isolated aspects of Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) traditionally found as device-related or specific system topics. Emphasizing cost savings and performance enhancement, the book integrates information on component... Read more

Biography
Marcus Nebeling, Hans Joerg Thiele
"CWDM is an optical communications technology that brought low cost and simplicity and thereby broadened the market. This book has a uniform, approachable, and teaching writing style and therefore is useful for any systems engineer working in the field, using the technology or consider CWDM as an alternative to DWDM. I highly recommend it."
-- Prof. Robert Norwood, Univ. of Arizona
"… A wonderfully written book by Marcus and Hans which provides the detail for those, that need to study the subject deeply, while interesting enough for those that need to understand the basics. Well done."
-- Ken Ahmad, Industry Pioneer and former VP of Luminent.
