Optoplex's Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) module, also known as Tunable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (TOADM), is based on a proprietary micro-optics and micro-actuator design, athermal packaging technology, and state-of-the-art thin-film coating. An Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (OADM) is a Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) networking device that has access to all wavelengths on a fiber and allows for specific wavelengths to be dropped or added at a location while also allowing other wavelengths to optically pass through the site. Impact of Changing Trends in the Reconfigurable Optical Add Drop Multiplexer Market The Reconfigurable Optical Add Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) market is poised for rapid growth, projected to achieve a formidable CAGR of 14. With ongoing advancements, OADMs have evolved from FOADMs. Recommendation ITU-T G. 672 provides a description of the relevant characteristics of multi-degree reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (MD-ROADM) network elements.
