Overview

Efficient and flexible aggregation layer of multiprotocol multi-rate sub-10G services into a 10G OTU2 uplink trunk, reducing the number of wavelengths needed for a sub-10G solution by a factor of 8 on average. Increases the spectral efficiency of WDM networks.

The PL-2000 reduces the solution cost and operation complexity by increasing fibre utilization and spectral efficiency. Each of the 10G OTU2 uplinks can simultaneously aggregate SDH/SONET, Ethernet, Fibre Channel and video services, providing a perfect access platform for multiple clients, and enables to merge legacy and new services transparently. Together with PacketLight LightWatch NMS the system provides A-to-Z provisioning. The PL-2000 Incorporates forward error correction suitable for long distance amplified DWDM network.

Video and Data DWDM network — Video and Data OTN fibre network

PacketLight LightWatch^TM NMS.

PacketLight LightWatch^TM multi-platform Java-based network management system (NMS) is an essential tool for effectively managing, configuring, and monitoring fiber optic networks.

PacketLight’s NMS provides comprehensive visibility and control over network infrastructure, enabling administrators to ensure optimal network performance, security, and reliability. The NMS enables administrators to monitor the equipment on the network, track traffic, detect and resolve issues, and configure network devices remotely.

The system collects and analyzes network data, and generates valuable insights and reports that are central in decision-making and troubleshooting. By centralizing network management tasks and automating routine processes, the NMS streamlines operations, enhances efficiency, and reduces downtime. It serves as a critical component in maintaining a robust and resilient network infrastructure in today's mission-critical landscape.

Enhancements

Optional integrated EDFAs, mux/demux, DCM and optical switch, 1+1 fibre protection and bi-directional performance monitoring are some of the advanced features that may be configured with the PL-2000.

Recommended Applications

■   10G ring applications
■   Sub-10G gateway for 10G/100G OTN networks
■   Multi-service access platform for service providers
■   Transporting multi-services over long distance optical network
■   Upgrading legacy infrastructure with new services
■   Efficient aggregation of multiple native video streams over DWDM and OTN infrastructure
