As 5G technology is accelerating its large-scale commercial deployment, the number of 5G communication base stations built up by operators is expected to increase exponentially in the next few years. 5G fronthaul is the essential part of 5G network transmission. The fronthaul technology solution based on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) has become the focus of the industry. This article will present and evaluate 5G fronthaul demand for 25G WDM technology, typical types of 5G fronthaul WDM technical solutions, 25G LAN-WDM technical solutions, and its standardization.
