A cost-effective passive foundation for multi-chassis optical networking configurations aimed at increasing 4G and 10G solution reach, the PL-300 incorporates a wide range of passive optical modules. It provides the needed optical layer functions of 4/8/16/32 DWDM wavelength multiplexing and 4/8/16 CWDM wavelength multiplexing, with an optical dispersion compensation module (DCM), an optical add / drop module (OADM), splitters and combiners.
Seamlessly integrate and stack the PL-300 with the PL-400 and PL-1000 CWDM/DWDM multiplexers to incrementally increase your optical solution to up to 32 wavelengths with up to 10GB throughput on each port.
Transparent optical multiplexing over any DWDM or CWDM optical signal, for any service and any rate from 2Mbps to 10G.
Compact 1U solution supports multiplexing of up to 32 DWDM wavelengths or 16 CWDM wavelengths.
Seamless operation with the PL-1000 DWDM fiber multiplexer and PL-400 Multi-service CWDM/DWDM multiplexer as well as other third-party WDM solutions.
Fully standards-based with support for both single and dual fiber.
Extended optical reach with dispersion compensation module (DCM).
Single wavelength add and drop (OADM) capability.
Enables flexible ‘pay as you grow’ scenario – start with a low cost solution to meet current needs, then expand incrementally up to a 32 wavelength solution over single or dual fiber.
Interconnects seamlessly with the PL-1000 DWDM fiber multiplexer and PL-400 Multi-service CWDM/DWDM multiplexer as well as other WDM solutions.
Simple installation and maintenance.
Building scalable, high capacity ‘pay as you grow’ optical networks
Expanding existing fiber capacity with new services
Converging existing networks with new services over an existing infrastructure
