Multiplexer with Non-Interleaved Channel Plan

摘要

An apparatus comprises a plurality of transmitters configured to transmit waves at a plurality of wavelengths, and a multiplexer coupled to the transmitters, comprising first ports and second ports, and configured to receive, via the first ports, a first subset of the waves meeting a first equation, receive, via the second ports, a second subset of the waves meeting a second equation, and multiplex the first subset of the waves and the second subset of the waves to create a combined wave. A method comprises receiving a first subset of waves at a first plurality of wavelengths and meeting a first equation, receiving a second subset of waves at a second plurality of wavelengths and meeting a second equation, multiplexing the first subset of waves and the second subset of waves in a non-interleaved manner to create a combined wave, and transmitting the combined wave.
