Abstract :
CESNET is an association of universities and Academy of science of Czech republic. It is operating a national research and education network (NREN) interconnecting all university cities in the republic. The optical transport backbone of this network is based on DWDM. Commonly used DWDM equipment are optimised for usage of transponders for connection of the user signal to transport network. For some particular applications we have utilised "coloured" signal and avoid transponders. Lab measurements and deployment of this solutions is described in the following article.
