the end terminals for that circuit need to be visited, whereas the other architectures
will frequently require that transponders be installed at midpoints.
The number of transponder pairs needed for each architecture is summarized in
Table 8.1. This example was intentionally simplified—only a short segment of a
network was considered, and only end-of-life traffic was modeled, without any of
the complications that can be caused by wavelength blocking when traffic grow s

costs, into account [4, 5]. The exampl ...
