  "term": "WSS",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "An acronym for Wavelength Selective Switch, a device that routes individual optical wavelengths from one or more input fibers to one or more output fibers. It functions as a programmable optical cross-connect, allowing for dynamic and remote reconfiguration of light paths in a network. WSS units are core components in modern Reconfigurable Optical Add-Drop Multiplexers (ROADMs) used in dense wavelength-division multiplexing systems.",
