This blog post is part of our blog series—Fiber Friday. Our subject matter experts will provide you with some insight into the world of fiber optics, covering various industry topics.
With 5G on the way, service providers need to get the most bandwidth out of their current fiber networks.
One recent development in fiber technology is the increased use of passive wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) devices. These devices allow carriers to get the most out of their valuable fiber assets.

In this vlog, I explain how this technology has evolved and the advantages it has created for service providers.
