Cisco NCS 2000 Flex Spectrum Single Module ROADM line cards create an agile DWDM layer forming the foundation for converged transport architectures, delivering features that allow programmability and agility in provisioning and recovery operations. Wavelength add/drop and routing are entirely software-driven, which eliminates manual operations, helps decrease operating expenses (OpEx), and reduces provisioning and recovery times. ● Colorless: Colorless ROADM ports are not frequency-specific. This simplifies provisioning and allows dynamic restoration, because the frequency of an ingress channel can be retuned by software without requiring its fiber to be relocated. ● Omnidirectional: Omnidirectional ROADM ports are not associated to specific ROADM degree, therefore a wavelength reroute.
