2 Degree Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) module for LambdaDriver WDM platform enabling highest flexibility in building DWDM networks. MRV’s LambdaDriver innovative ROADM module, allows service providers to add or tear down wavelengths on DWDM network within seconds.

The LambdaDriver® EM1600-ROADM40 module enable fully tunable 40 wavelengths networks Ring and Linear OADM topologies. The LambdaDriver RODAM uses an advanced IPLC technology for Reconfigurable ADD/EXPRESS and ultra-low loss DWDM DROP functionality, based on Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG) devices. The ROADM can multiplex/demultiplex up to 40 DWDM C-Band channels (carrier wavelengths/frequencies) spaced 100 GHz apart over a single physical fiber. Each channel is fully independent of the others and can carry data at the same rate as a dedicated physical fiber.

The range of the channels is between 192.00 THz (1561.419 nm) and 195.90 THz (1530.334 nm).

Any of the following actions can be performed on each channel independently:
- ADD: Enable the channel to carry data from local access equipment over the ROADM network.
- DROP: Enable the channel to carry data received from remote access equipment to local access equipment.
- PASS: Enable the channel to carry data received from remote access equipment to another LambdaDriver.
- DARK: Block the channel from carrying data from local or remote access equipment to another LambdaDriver.
