14.1.7 Multiplexer, Demultiplexer, and OADM Card Interface Classes

The 32MUX-O, 32WSS, 32DMX, 32DMX-O, 4MD-xx.x, AD-1C-xx.x, AD-2C-xx.x, and AD-4C-xx.x
cards have different input and output optical channel signals, depending upon the interface card where
the input signal originates. The input interface cards have been grouped in classes listed in
The subsequent tables list the optical performances and output power of each interface class.
