Abstract

See full text

This disclosure relates to optical line system equipment, which enables wavelength addition for long haul transmission. The system is configured to prevent contention of wavelengths added into a multiplexer. For example, an optical wavelength combiner, such as a multiplexer, may include components that are configured to detect potential collisions between existing wavelengths and a newly added wavelength, and block the addition of the conflicting wavelength while alerting the operator.
