ABSTRACT:
A system for delivering optical signals to and from an undersea optical cable may include a cable landing station connected to the undersea optical cable and configured to convey a wavelength division multiplexed optical signal from the undersea optical cable. The system may also include a point of presence that includes wavelength division multiplexing equipment configured to convert the wavelength division multiplexed optical signal to a number of optical channels. At least one terrestrial optical fiber may be coupled between the cable landing station and the point of presence to transport the wavelength division multiplexed optical signal from the cable landing station to the point of presence.
