    Does passive wavelength division multiplexing WDM require an optical module

    Passive components for signal management: WDM systems use optical multiplexers and demultiplexers to combine and separate wavelengths. Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a technique used in fiber optic communication that allows multiple data signals to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fiber. In more recent years, WDM has worked its way out to the edge and passive optical networks (PONs) utilizing WDM have become the primary way of enabling fiber-to-the-home.
