A scalable terminal node can be created by using band and/or channel OADM filter cards. This node type
is the most flexible of all node types because the OADM filter cards can be configured to accommodate
node traffic. If the node does not contain amplifiers, it is considered a passive hybrid terminal node.
Figure 17-20 shows an example of a scalable terminal node configuration. This node type can be used
without add or drop cards.
