Optical network surprises sometimes like when certain wavelengths on a cable will become unreliable due to damage but others work fine.

- rwmj 8y agoDo the transceivers work around this (similar to what happens with DSL) or do you have to replace the whole fibre?
- xvf22 8y agoHmm no I don't think so, the goal with multiplexing is to keep the streams separate so you can untangle them at the end since you're running multiple customers on a fiber. Losing a wavelength means less streams you can fit on it.
