Abstract
An add-drop multiplexer contains a partial drop unit and a partial add unit. The partial drop unit selects a number n of first signal(s) of n channel(s) among a number N of first signals of N channels, which are received from a first transmission line, and transmits the n first signal(s) of n channel(s) on at least one second transmission line, where N and n are integers satisfying N>n>0. The partial add unit receives n second signal(s) of n channel(s) from at least one third transmission line, and a number (N-n) of first signal(s) of (N-n) channel(s) among the N first signals of the N channels, which are not selected by the partial drop unit, and transmits on the first transmission line the n second signal(s) of n channel(s) and the (N-n) first signal(s) of (N-n) channel(s) as N third signals of N channels.
