Yes, you can do exactly that. Makes it easy to use a single or pair of
strands in a large variety of ways. Love WDM.

Subject: [AFMUG] DWDM/CWDM Magic
We may have the opportunity to grab 2 strands of dark fiber. These will
allow us to build a loop between two points on our network. We have been
told we can also break into this fiber within our loop. I'm guessing when
we break into this fiber they will just extend the dark fiber into our
handhole and we will be responsible to figure out what we do once we cut
into that fiber.
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to do this passively so we don't
have to depend on having our loop run though a customers location. I was
thinking of CWDM. I can setup a CWDM/DWDM at our site and send multiple
wave lengths down the fiber. Is there a way for me to break out just one
wavelength at a hand hole passively?
Let's say I have a North/South run of 2 strands going though a hand hole and
I what to break out 1270nm for a customer. Is there away for me in the hand
hole, passively, to peel off just 1270nm. Put something like a 1x2 splitter
in on N1, N2, S1, S2 and send those 4 fibers into the customer site. Then
install a couple of 1270nm optics in a switch to preserve the loop for that
one customer.
Do the optics do all the magic or are there some type of filters in the
DWDM/CWDM modules?
