Networks come in many configurations, sizes, and complexities. Some are simple point-to-point links. Others employ splitters, multiplexers, and de-multiplexers. There are multi-channel DWDM networks, ROADM-based mesh networks, and now dual polarization multiplexed coherent networks. While these networks may have many differences, they all have at least one thing in common: they are all built with fiber links that operate based on managing optical link loss
