Abstract:
Wavelength division multiplex ring communication network equipment comprises a first multiplexer connected to a first optical fiber portion dedicated to transporting multiplexed signals and a second multiplexer connected to a second optical fiber portion. The equipment comprises signal protection circuitry connected to the first and second multiplexers and to a terminal which, in the event of local detection of interruption of signal transmission at a first wavelength on the first optical fiber portion, send the signals coming from the terminal to the second multiplexer at a second wavelength so that it communicates them to the second optical fiber portion, and sends to the terminal the signals that are addressed to it and that come from the second optical fiber portion at the second wavelength.
