Abstract
An output stage for WDM information transmission transmits a plurality of carrier waves modulated by an information signal and a filling lightwave. A first control circuit controls a desired power signal which determines the power of the filling light source so that the total power of carrier and filling lightwaves detected by a photodetector is held constant at a predetermined reference level. The filling light source is part of an assembly which is replaceably mounted at a first mounting location of the output stage. At a second mounting location of the output stage a second assembly comprising a second filling light source is mounted or adapted to be mounted. An auxiliary circuit is adapted to provide one of the two filling light sources with a continuously decreasing second desired power signal.
