PL-1000 is designed primarily to address the growing needs for high data capacity applications such as IPTV, Triple play and NGN which needs to be transported over existing or new fiber infrastructures. The PL-1000’s capabilities, dimensions and competitive cost make it the ideal solution for evolving metro Ethernet networks, enterprise networks, campus environments and central office connectivity.
The PL-1000 supports up to 4 high-speed 10G services. Each Service is configured independently, using PacketLight’s user-friendly Web-based management tool. The PL-1000 can be managed by any 3rd party SNMP system or with PacketLight’s EMS.
The PL-1000 is designed to support point-to-point, Linear ADM and ring topologies with Facility protection. The PL-1000 is a highly integrated device, incorporating Mux/DeMux, EDFA and optical switch for both its transponder and regenerator modes, also enabling simple and cost effective upgrade of existing infrastructure to carry 10G services.
The PL-1000 seamlessly integrates with PacketLight’s WDM product family thus enabling a mixture of 10G and sub 10G services over the same fiber and supporting stackable solution operation of up to 40 DWDM wavelengths.
All optical transceivers, both on the service side and on the WDM-uplink side, are pluggable and replaceable allowing pay-as-you-grow budget planning and simplified maintenance.
