    This document provides information on central frequencies, wavelengths, and channel numbers for the ITU DWDM grid standard. It lists central frequencies from 191.7-196.1 THz in 0.1 THz increments and their corresponding wavelengths from 1563.86-1528.77 nm. While this grid defines a standard, users have flexibility to choose wavelengths from any part of the spectrum and manufacturers can modify the grid spacing. Closer spacing enables more channels but also increases crosstalk and nonlinear fiber effects.

    While this grid defines a standard, users are free to use the wavelengths in arbitrary ways and to choose
    from any part of the spectrum. In addition, manufacturers can deviate from the grid by extending the
    upper and lower bounds or by spacing the wavelengths more closely, typically at 50 GHz, to double the
    number of channels. The closer the spacing, the more channel crosstalk results. In addition, the impact
    of some fiber nonlinearities, such as FWM, increases. Spacing at 50 GHz also limits the maximum data
    rate per wavelength to 10 Gbps. The implications of the flexibility in implementation are twofold: There
    is no guarantee of compatibility between two end systems from different vendors, and there exists a
    design trade-off in the spacing of wavelengths between number of channels and maximum bit rate.
