- •In short: Yes, it can!
- •If the corresponding wavelength is injected into the drop port, then it is added to the signal. OADM can work from both sides. There is no essential difference between Add and Drop. Directions of light are reversible. For example, if we take a look at the scheme from the EDGE Optics product… Then we see that any arrow direction can be reversed, and everything will work. It is a matter of equipment labelling.
