Abstract
This paper provides an overview of dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks, including the principles and the current technologies. A discussion on the DWDM switching/routing issues and the possible solutions is followed after the overview. An analysis on the system requirements for all optical DWDM integrated services networks is then presented
