Résumé

Fiber optic networks are rapidly becoming the core of today's telecommunications and data networking infrastructures. This indispensable and practical guide, written by two of the principal architects of wavelength division multiplexing, explores the driving need for all-optical networks, the economic trade-offs involved, and their fundamental capabilities and design. This state of the art reference, which has sold more than 25,000 copies, provides unique coverage of the design of today's lightwave networks and the problems they solve, gives an ideal combination of transmission technologies, components, and networking aspects of fiber optic networks, explains wavelength routing from a practical perspective, discusses network control and management issues, including network survivability.
