LambdaDriver™ family Wave Division Multiplexing
MAN Bandwidth Demand • Bandwidth doubling every 6-9 months • Traffic nature more complex: TDM,ATM,FR,IP data, VoIP&Video • Rapid grow in SAN and distributed processing Source: CIBC World Markets, June 2001
Options for increasing throughput • Increase the Speed Limit: Now 2001 2003? 1Gbps ->2.5Gbps ->10Gbps -> 40Gbps(OC768) -> 160Gbps • More wavelengths on the fiber: 1990 2001 1->2->4->16->32->160 --->? • Widen the band windows (widen the road)
Optical Transmission Bands Bands: Short 1470-1530nm Conventional 1530-1570nm Long 1570-1610nm
Multiplexing techniques Tributaries are sent in specific time slots Electrical Signal Inputs TDM Tributaries are sent when capacity is available Electrical Signal Inputs SMUX Tributaries are sent on different wavelengths Optical or Electrical Signal WDM

DWDM versus CWDM ITU Grid Standard(G692)
How close can they(l’s) be? • Current filters can discriminate to around 25Ghz • Min. Spacing = Max. Bit Rate x 2.5

SONET with WDM • Existing SONET equipment investments can be preserved by using WDM as transport layer • SONET multiplexing equipment can be eliminated by direct connection to OC48 interfaces OC-n SONET Fiber W D M OC48 ATM Switch OC48 Router
Upgrading SONET/SDH 3 options for upgrading SONET ring: • Replace equipment, like OC48 to OC192 • Install a new ring on new or existing dark fiber • Install one or more new rings by deploying WDM over existing fiber. May be the most important application in the near term!

Transponders • Converts the access(gray) wavelength to WDM specific wavelength(and vice versa). • Performs 3R (reshape,retime,retransmit) function • Hot swappable, undependable modules
Multi-wavelength signal Demultiplexed Wavelengths Demultiplexed Wavelength DeMux Multiplexer/Demultiplexer Passive units which combine (Multiplex) number of incoming fibers into one fiber and splits (DeMultiplex) one fiber into number of outgoing fibers.
OADM “dropped” wavelength “added” wavelength OADM “dropped” wavelength “added” wavelength Optical Add/Drop Multiplexing • When building a Ring topology only part of the wavelengths need to be dropped/added at every node. • OADM’s – “pass through” without substantial attenuation all the channels that are not dropped at that location.
1+1 Protection Provides automatic optical protection for the link Primary link DeMUX MUX Secondary link
Post OA Pre OA Line OA Post OA DeMUX MUX Site B Site A Optical Amplifier • This is an optional module, used for long(more than 50Km) distances. No OEO conversion! • Could be placed after MUX(post), before DeMUX(pre) or between sites (in line). • Currently available only for DWDM wavelengths range
EDFA Principle EDFA - Erbium-doped fiber amplifier – amplifies light in the 1540 nm window.
LambdaDriver™ Management • Provides configuration and link fault monitoring • Runs the management tasks and interfaces external managers by means of SNMP, Telnet and CLI. Redundant CPU – optional. • OSC (Optical Service Channel) – allows management of the remote unit using separate wavelength (1310nm). • Service module – responsible for combining/splitting the OSC with the WDM trunk
Access Protocols • Potentially any protocol with rates from 100Mbps up to 10Gbps… • LambdaDriver™ family currently supports: Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Fiber Channel, OC3, OC12 and OC192 protocols … • Other rates are possible per request. • Rate Adaptive Transponders are available.

Mux/DeMux Power Supplies Transponders LambdaDriver™ Family • LD800 – 8 slot modular chassis for up to 8 DWDM/CWDM channels, OADM and media converters managed hub. • Targeted for lower bandwidth and cost applications. • Will host the same type of transponders as in the LD1600 box. • Will host either 8 channel DWDM, 4 channel CWDM or OADM cards
Lambda Driver™ Family • LD10x – Stand alone units for media conversion and • 2 wavelength single fiber operation. • Currently available the following products: • FE copper to fiber (Multimode&Singlemode) • converters with dual and single fiber operation.
