Services
- Ethernet in Metro Access Networks
- Ethernet WDM Point-to-Point (PtP) or Linear Add/Drop- eWDM is a scalable design that enables the delivery of multi- gigabit traffic in a 'pay-as-you-grow' model between buildings or data centers, with the possibility of adding or dropping services along the way
- Pipeline (GAS, Transportation) Application- Uses Gigabit links to transport data, security video, and voice traffic to connect utilities companies main locations and sub-locations (e.g. railways, oil/gas pipe lines)
Technology Highlights
- Passive Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (OADM) in each sub-location
- MM, SM and Single Fiber based solutions
- Advanced optical amplification and 1,2,3,4, and 8 channels OADMs with mix of wavelengths
- Package of up to 16 Gigabit Ethernet channels onto a single pair of dark fiber
- Use of Gigabit links to transport data, video, and voice traffic
