Dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) refers originally to optical signals multiplexed within the 1550 nm band so as to leverage the capabilities (and cost) of EDFAs, which are effective for wavelengths between approximately 1525–1565 nm (), or 1570–1610 nm ().

A WDM System (Wavelength Division Multiplexing System) enables efficient optical transmission by combining multiple wavelengths into a single fiber. The chapter begins with a quick historical account of the origin of optical communication and its exponential growth following the invention of erbium oped fiber amplifier (EDFA) leading to the widespread adoption of WDM. Wavelength division multiplexers are fundamental to the functioning and performance of integrated photonic circuits, with applications ranging from optical interconnects to sensing and quantum technologies. Current solutions are limited by trade-offs between channel spacing, crosstalk, insertion.

This makes it possible to scale capacity cost-effectively by using existing infrastructure more efficiently.

WDM systems are divided into three different wavelength patterns: normal (WDM), coarse (CWDM) and dense (DWDM). Coarse WDM provides up to 16 channels across multiple transmission windows of silica fibers.
