Auto-tunable DWDM transceiver cuts deployment costs
They are designed to save service providers cost and time to deploy new services. The cable market is challenged by demand for increasing subscriber bandwidth while at the same time maintaining or reducing CapEx and OpEx. This challenge is driving multiple system operators (MSOs) to deploy new technologies and network architectures. One such example involves using Remote-PHY (R-PHY) technology to deliver digital Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) signals over the fiber part of the network rather than traditional analog or hybrid-fiber coax architectures. Using DWDM transceivers allows more efficient use of fiber resources, which in turn enables MSO subscribers to enjoy higher bandwidth and more advanced services. Enabling DWDM transceivers to self-tune, further reduces costs and the traditional need for tuning equipment is eliminated. The new module auto-discovers and self-tunes to individual DWDM wavelengths without manipulation by OEM platform or peripheral devices, it also works with switch platforms that do not natively support tunable transceivers. The device supports up to 80Km reach with full industrial temperature performance, it comes in 50GHz or 100GHz channel spacing.
