The PL-1000GM is PacketLight’s 100G Multiprotocol Multirate Muxponder/Transponder for high capacity optical transport solutions.
It is highly integrated platform for providing a unified 100G optical transport layersupporting various client services including protocols: 40G/100G LAN, 10G LAN/ WAN, STM64/OC-192, OTU2/3 and 8G/10G FC. The PL-1000GM is designed to provide 100G transport solution in modular and cost effective way for rolling out services. It uses standards based, pluggable optical modules on all the optical interfaces on both client and line side. It is targeted for meeting the market demands for low power consumption, rack space savings and reduction in the overall solution CAPEX and OPEX by increasing the capacity of enterprise and metro networks.
The PL-1000GM supports a flexible mix of 10G/40G client interfaces for current and future needs aggregating them into a 100G uplink. The platform thus allows migration from current to future service requirement (protocols and rates) without the need to replace the unit.
The PL-1000GM seamlessly integrates with PacketLight’ts PL-2000 and PL1000TN to deliver-carrier, grade high-end 100G solutions capable of serving multiple applications and protocols for Enterprise/Data Center and Metro networks ranging from the Data, Storage, TDM, ATM and Video networks.
The PL-1000GM 1U device supports up to two integrated optical amplifiers, Mux/ Demux and DCM providing the smallest, most integrated transport solution of its kind reaching up to 120Km without intermediate sites.
