Thousands of channels can be transmitted through a single mode fiber using different multiplexing techniques. These multichannel optical systems provide saving in cost of installing and upgrading of lightwave networks. Also they can easily be implemented on existing optical fiber networks. The use of active or intelligent node rather a passive node can further increase the capacity of multi-channel optical networks. In this paper, multi-channel optical add/drop networks are investigated with respect to passive and active nodes. Results show the use of active node in an optical network increases the system capacity and improves the performance of a system.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
