Core Value of Application Scenario Deployment Method
High density ring/chain network nodes are deployed in intermediate nodes of ring or chain networks that require 80 channel capacity, achieving dynamic wavelength routing that doubles the system capacity compared to 40 channel systems, meeting high-density business requirements
The evolution of nodes from 40 waves to 80 waves requires the deployment of network nodes that need to be expanded to 80 waves in the existing 40 wave system to support smooth upgrades and protect existing investments
ROADM node supplements the uplink as an uplink expansion unit in ROADM node, increasing the density of uplink ports to provide 8 uplink ports, supporting independent VOA adjustment per wavelength, and optimizing transmission performance
Optical layer ASON network nodes serve as manageable on road units in networks that require optical layer intelligence features.Optical layer ASON supports automated business scheduling and protection
