…granularity, the Select OADM is capable of dropping any mix of wavelengths to match different traffic demands at a given site within the network. Multiple Select OADMs can be supported along a CoreStream Agility route, and all types of traffic patterns are supported between different OADM sites, as shown…

…Agility network. With single channel granularity, the C-OADM is capable of dropping any mix of wavelengths within a single CoreStream band. Multiple C-OADMs can be supported in a CoreStream Agility network; C-OADM can also be mixed with Select OADM to enable wavelength re-use, as shown in the diagram.…
