Which risk dramatically increases during DWDM system reconfiguration?

💡 Explanation

Four-wave mixing (FWM) increases due to non-uniform channel spacing after reconfiguration using Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM). This occurs because new channel combinations meet phase matching conditions facilitating FWM, therefore signal degradation increases rather than any reduction in fiber impairments or noise.
