ROADM Benefits
Any wavelength at any node Simplify engineering and deployment compared to
fixed OADM Remote provisioning and reconfiguration Eliminate truck rolls to intermediate sites Reduce cost through OEO elimination – end-end
wavelength networking The underlying premise: less electronics + more
optics = lower cost But…

Wavelength Blocking in ROADM Networks
32-40 WDM
Allocate bandwidth on ROADM ring using available ’s Extending ROADM consumes ’s end-end across network… Blocking consumes extra ’s or requires OEO for conversion… ..or creates stranded bandwidth and faster capacity exhaust This does not scale with….
Protection; Hundreds of demands; Larger networks; Nodal connectivity

Sub-Wavelength Traffic in ROADM Networks
Typically many sub- end-end demands: GbE or OC-48/STM-16 Use “Muxponders” to aggregate 8-10 x 1G or 4 x 2.5G per wavelength Creates many point-point connections and complex planning New demands either strand bandwidth, or consume extra wavelengths Different muxponders for 1G and 2.5G compound complexity
New A-Z demand
Option 1:• New end-end and
muxponders • Inefficient wavelength fill• Stranded capacity & faster
capacity exhaustOption 2:• Use existing ’s and muxponders• Added cost from extra interfaces• Manual inter-connects at back-back sites
require truck rolls and extra OpEx

Lets Step Back: Benefits of Electronics in Optical Networks
Reach Improvement- G.709 standard defines 6dB gain FEC (Reed-Solomon)
- High-gain FEC provides optical gain of 8dB to 9dB
- Corrects BER of 10-3 to BER of 10-17
- Cost per chip: 10’s to 100’s of €
Dispersion Compensation- FFE and DFE can compensate upwards of 1000ps/nm
- MLSE can correct upwards of 3000ps/nm dispersion
- Significant space savings vs. DCF- Cost per device: 10’s of €
PM and Operations- OTH and SONET/SDH Overhead- Extensive digital PM at all OEO nodes
- J0/B1, BIP-8- FEC bit error rate monitoring- Communication channels for OAM&P
- SONET/SDH DCC and OTH TCM
Reconfigurable Switching- Wide choice of switching/grooming
granularity (VC-4, ODU-1, packet)- Fundamental to managing and
grooming customer services - Highest level of reconfigurability- Cost per chip: 10’s to 100’s of €

Relative Costs of OEO – The “O” vs. the “E”
High cost of OEO conversion compared to the cost for manipulating the data
Implementing feature-rich network & service functionality incurs a cost premium
Silicon cost is not the problem…
…it is the conversion cost from Optical to Electronic
