CONT

Dans le cadre des transmissions par fibre optique multiplexées en longueur d'onde, le routage des différents signaux dans un réseau reconfigurable fait appel à une fonction de commutation et à une fonction de filtrage en longueur d'onde. [...] Cette technique présente l'inconvénient de faire appel à un circulateur à 3 voies (composant coûteux et introduisant des pertes optiques supplémentaires).
