DWDM Training | Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing Training:

DWDM Training – Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing Training Course Hands-on Exercises (Online, Onsite, and Classroom Live)

Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) is a key part of the world’s communications infrastructure. The revolution in optical transmission technologies that have occurred in this decade has allowed operators to dramatically increase their transmission capabilities at a fraction of the costs of legacy technologies. For anyone involved with telecommunication and information technology, understanding this technology is of vital importance.

In this introductory DWDM or Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing course, you will learn the essentials of the T-carrier system, review the SONET/SDH basics, and study the technology and applications of dense wavelength division multiplexing. Toward the end of the DWDM Training course, we will also touch upon coarse wavelength division multiplexing.
