Description
Demand for new and changing customer applications requires service providers to deploy networking services with scalable capacity to more destinations cost-effectively. Traditional fixed OADM products cannot provide the scalability or flexibility required, but reconfigurable OADMs (ROADMs) can; Optelian ROADMs provide an essential capability that reduces total cost of ownership, simplifies operations and delivers rapid time to revenue.
Features:
- Unrestricted flexibility
– Add, drop and pass-through DWDM wavelengths at network sites, and remotely reconfigure circuits at any time without visiting the site - Network monitoring
– Automatically monitor optical power levels on all wavelengths without requiring an optical spectrum analyzer - Power balancing
– Perform automatic, per-channel optical power balancing in real time - Scalable ROADM sites
– Two-degree and four-degree ROADMs are available to allow multi-degree site deployment
– 40-channel and 80-channel cards enable cost-effective deployment - Reliable infrastructure
– Leverages mature WSS technology for high reliability and low power utilization
