Multi-Service CWDM/DWDM Multiplexer

The PL-400 from PacketLight is a highly cost-effective access/transport device for multiplexing up to 8 high-speed services such storage, data, voice and video over fiber. Supporting both CWDM and DWDM technologies, the PL-400 is ideal for enterprise campus environments as well as for service provider delivery of high-bandwidth services. With its wide variety of SFP interfaces and an ability to stack units up to 32 DWDM or 16 CWDM wavelengths, the PL-400 provides an economical pay-as-you-grow architecture.

• Supports up to 8 high-speed (125Mbps - 4.25Gbps) services over a single fiber.

• Transport anything! Supports 1G/2G/4G Fiber Channel & FICON, ESCON, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, OC-3/STM-1, OC-12/STM-4, OC-48/STM-16, DVB-ASI video and GPON in any mix.

• Deploy in point-to-point, chain and ring topologies with multiple protection schemes.

• Pluggable SFP interface for service and WDM channels.

• Configure each service independently using PacketLight's user-friendly web-based management tool.

• Can be remotely managed through dedicated optical supervisory channels.

• Space-saving 1U platform delivers low power consumption.

• All optical receivers, for service WDM-uplink, are pluggable and fully replaceable for ease of maintenance.

• Fiber relief for high-capacity multi-tenant buildings and campuses.

• Interconnection of SAN and LAN islands in remote metro sites.

• Aggregation of DSLAM and Ethernet switch traffic on a single fiber - from access to core.

• WDM GPON extension between the central office and the local exchange for network simplification and cost reduction.

• DVB-ASI video transport.
