Optical add/drop multiplexer
First Claim
1. An optical add/drop multiplexer for switching a optical path, and dropping or adding channel that has a predetermined wavelength, the optical path for changing an input signal that has multiplexed wavelengths and that is input to an input port, to an output signal for each wavelength, the output signal being led to output ports for a plurality of routes in each transmission path, the optical add/drop multiplexer comprising:
- a core unit that includes a through path that lets the input signal pass through to the output port;
a drop port for dropping the input signal that has a predetermined wavelength; and
an add port for adding the channel to the input signal.

Abstract
A core unit arranged in a transmission path includes a through path for causing an input signal to an input port to pass through to an output port, a drop-side port 25a that drops the input signal having a predetermined wavelength, and an add-side port 25b that adds channel having a predetermined wavelength to the input light.
