Technical Examples

An optical network includes an optical ring and a plurality of add/drop nodes coupled to the optical ring. Each of the add/drop nodes is operable to passively add and drop one or more traffic streams to and from the optical ring, and each traffic stream comprises a channel. A hub node also coupled to the optical ring is operable to selectively pass and terminate individual traffic streams.
