Embodiment Construction

[0018] exist figure 1 In the illustrated communication network 10 comprises a first network configuration 11 , an optical network configuration 12 and a second network configuration 13 . An optical network configuration 12 is connected to each of the first and second network configurations 11 , 13 . Alternatively, only a single network configuration connected to the optical network configuration 12 may be given.

[0019] The first and second network configurations 11, 13 may be implemented as active and / or multiplexed and / or any other type of communication infrastructure. Optical network configurations are built from passive fiber optic infrastructure12. The optical network infrastructure 12 comprises two entry points 15, which establish connections between the optical network configuration 12 and the first and second network configurations 11, 13, respectively. Furthermore, the optical network arrangement 12 comprises an optical path 16 interconnecting the two entry points...

Abstract

An optical network configuration (12) for transmitting optical signals is described. The optical network configuration (12) comprises an entry point (15) for coupling the optical network configuration (12) to another network configuration (11, 13), and an optical trail (16) for transmitting data signals within the optical network configuration (12). The entry point (15) comprises an optical filter (23) for coupling the other network configuration (11) and the optical trail (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to optical network configurations for transmitting optical signals. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of monitoring optical paths of an optical network configuration. Background technique [0002] Providers are known to lease not only specific communication equipment to customers, but even entire network configurations. These network configurations are often referred to as "dark paths" or "dark fibers" with respect to optical transmission. These optical network configurations include one or more optical paths for carrying a large number of data transmission channels available to customers. However, providers usually do not have rights to use these channels. [0003] In order to monitor the optical path for failures or faults, one of the channels may be used for monitoring purposes. Obviously, this will reduce the bandwidth available to clients. Contents of the invention [0004] It is an object of the present i...
