    The 1FINITY L220 CDC Add/Drop blade is a 3RU, standalone, passive shelf that delivers 28 wavelengths directly from the blade and can scale up to 144 add/drops. This economical solution is perfect for smaller CDC ROADM sites up to four degrees that require the flexibility to grow, says the company.

    Judge’s comment: “The CDC, colorless, contentionless and connectionless features are the future of wavelength-selective switching ROADMs and will enable increased capacities over existing infrastructures and increased reliability in ringed and meshed fiber networks. Having these features today is a substantial benefit.”
