This document summarizes a coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) system that can demonstrate add-drop functionality. The system operates with 4 laser diodes at wavelengths of 1510nm, 1530nm, 1550nm, and 1570nm within the C+L band from 1525nm to 1610nm. It uses fiber Bragg gratings and optical circulators to demonstrate channel dropping and addition. The system can be controlled through a user-friendly GUI and operates in both standalone and PC-controlled modes.
