3.Core functional characteristics

Functional Module Technical Description System Value

Wavelength uplink and downlink enable the uplink and downlink functions of 8 consecutive DWDM wavelength channels, while other wavelengths can be directly routed locally or inserted with specific wavelength services without the need for complete wavelength splitting, saving costs

Integrated VOA adjustable optical attenuation provides a dynamic attenuation range of 20dB for 8 on road channels (A1~A8) and line side input signals (VI-VO) to achieve remote fine adjustment of optical power, optimize nonlinear effects, improve system performance margin, and balance the power of each channel

Optical layer ASON supports automatic switching of optical layers, providing basic support for intelligent optical networks and achieving automated wavelength level business scheduling and protection

Fixed wavelength grouping supports 5 consecutive 8-channel configurations, covering the main frequency range of the C-band and providing standardized wavelength combination selection, simplifying network planning and configuration

Cascade expansion capability provides MI/MO cascade interface, which can be connected to another OADM board to achieve channel expansion.It supports smooth expansion from 8 channels to 16/24/32 channels, adapting to network expansion needs

The wavelength query function supports querying the configuration information of upstream and downstream wavelengths, making it easy for operation and maintenance personnel to grasp the current channel configuration status

The DWDM standard supports compliance with DWDM technical specifications, with a channel spacing of 100GHz, fully compatible with mainstream DWDM systems, and suitable for backbone and metropolitan wavelength division networks

Applicable scenarios for fixed 8-wavelength uplink and downlink nodes that require power regulation and ASON intelligent features

8.Application scenarios

Core Value of Application Scenario Deployment Method

The DWDM core aggregation node is deployed in the middle node of the metropolitan core ring to achieve local business uplink and downlink of 8 consecutive wavelengths.The VOA power adjustment is used to achieve 8-channel wavelength uplink and downlink, while the VOA power is remotely adjusted to optimize nonlinear effects

ASON intelligent network nodes serve as manageable and adjustable OADM nodes in networks that require optical layer ASON functionality.Optical layer ASON supports automated wavelength level business scheduling and protection

The intermediate node of the long-distance trunk line is located at the intermediate station of the long-distance trunk line, and a continuous set of 8 wavelengths is sent to the local area.The VOA balanced power VOA can compensate for the power difference between different wavelengths and improve the system OSNR

Cascade expansion networking connects multiple MR8V boards through MI/MO cascade interfaces, building 16/24/32 channel OADM nodes that support smooth expansion of channel numbers to meet business growth needs

Power sensitive applications deploy a dynamic attenuation range of 20dB in complex links that require precise control of fiber input power, providing refined power management capabilities

9.Maintenance and ordering information

Project Information

Component code TN12MR8V (specific version such as TN12MR8V02)

Ordering instructions: When placing an order, it is necessary to confirm the wavelength grouping requirements (5 groups are optional).MR8V supports a fixed configuration of 5 consecutive 8 wavelengths

On site operation supports hot plugging, and anti-static wrist straps should be worn during operation.Pay attention to cleaning the fiber optic connectors

After the installation of VOA configuration, VOA attenuation calibration needs to be performed through the network management to ensure control accuracy

If the cascade connection needs to expand the number of channels, it is necessary to correctly connect the MI/MO cascade ports to ensure the correct direction of the optical path

After testing and verifying installation, insertion loss testing, VOA function testing, up and down channel connectivity testing, and cascading function verification are required

Spare parts management, as a key board in the intelligent optical layer, is recommended to configure spare parts at network critical nodes

Core Summary:

TN12MR8V is an 8-channel DWDM optical add/drop multiplexing board in the OSN 9800 platform.Based on the traditional OADM function, it integrates two core enhancement features: VOA (Variable Optical Attenuation) and optical layer ASON support.

Core values and positioning:

Integrating VOA to achieve intelligent power management: providing a dynamic attenuation range of 20dB, it can remotely fine tune the input power of the on road channel and line side, optimize nonlinear effects, balance the power of each channel, and improve the system OSNR.

Optical Layer ASON Intelligent Support: Supports automatic switching of optical network functions at the optical layer, providing a foundation for building an intelligent automatic switching optical network and achieving automated wavelength level business scheduling and protection.

High density wavelength uplink and downlink: Provides 8-channel continuous wavelength uplink and downlink capability, meeting the requirements of medium scale wavelength aggregation/add/drop, and is an efficient choice for intelligent OADM nodes.

Standardized wavelength grouping: supports 5 predefined continuous 8-wavelength configurations, covering the main frequency range of the C-band, simplifying network planning and configuration.

Cascade expansion capability: Through the MI/MO cascade interface, multiple MR8V boards can be connected to achieve smooth expansion of channel numbers, adapting to the progressive expansion needs of the network from 8 channels to 16/24/32 channels.

Difference from TN11MR8:

On the basis of TN11MR8, TN12MR8V has added two core functions: VOA adjustable optical attenuation and optical layer ASON support.However, at the same time, the power consumption has significantly increased from 0.3W to 6.0W, and the insertion loss has also increased.Choosing TN12MR8V means accepting higher power consumption and insertion loss when obtaining power regulation and intelligent features.

Application suggestion:

This board is an 8-channel OADM component for intelligent optical networks in the OSN 9800 wavelength division system. It is particularly suitable for scenarios that require precise power adjustment, ASON intelligent characteristics, and fixed 8-wavelength uplink and downlink, such as ASON intelligent network nodes, long-distance trunk intermediate stations, and power sensitive complex links. In conjunction with the iMaster NCE intelligent control system, intelligent operation and automated scheduling of the core layer optical network can be achieved.
