Multiprotocol / Multirate Muxponder

The PL-2000 is an advanced Multiprotocol/Multirate Muxponder

with flexible uplink aggregation capacity of up to 20G
FEATURE OVERVIEW

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Increasing the spectral efficiency of CWDM/

DWDM networks with user configurable
Single or Dual Low Latency 10G
Muxponders

The PL-2000, a member of PacketLights Muxponder Family, is a perfect solution for simplifying the management and maintenance as well
as reducing the overall cost of CWDM/DWDM solution. The PL-2000
significantly lowers the number of wavelengths needed for the CWDM/
DWDM network as well as the number of required filters thus reducing
the size and cost of EDFAs and the management complexity of the
network.

Up to 16 multiprotocol and multirate

services aggregation over a single or dual
independent 10G wavelengths
Service type supported are:
Fast Ethernet, GbE, 1/2/4G FC/FICON, STM1/OC-3, STM-4/OC-12, STM-16/OC-48, DVBASI, SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G HD-SDI
Dual standard based Optical Transport
Network (OTN) OTU2 Uplinks
Supporting three Forward Error Correction
(FEC) and EFEC types
1+1 Facility uplink protection
Supports both Line and Service
performance monitoring
Optional integrated EDFA and/or
MUX/DEMUX modules
Cost-effective, compact 1U platform with low
power consumption ideal for CLE (Customer
Located Equipment)
Remote management with In-band or Outband Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC)
Dual AC or DC pluggable Power Supply and
pluggable FAN Unit
Supports standard MSA SFPs (client) and
XFPs (uplink) & C-Band Tunable XFPs

www.packetlight.com

The PL-2000 provides an efficient and flexible aggregation layer of

multiprotocol/multirate sub-10G services into 10G uplink trunk thus
reducing the number of wavelengths needed for a sub-10G solution
by a factor of 8 on average. Increasing fiber utilization and spectral
efficiency of data transport further reduces the solution cost and operation complexity.
With its multiprotocol and multirate support, the 10G OTU2 uplink can
aggregate simultaneously SDH/SONET, Eth, Fibre Channel and Video
services, thus providing a perfect access platform for multiple clients
needs and allows merging of legacy and new services transparently.
PacketLights PL-2000 transparently multiplexes up to 16 client
services into a single or dual independent 10G wavelengths, in an
elegant, transparent layer-1, ultra low latency mapping to 10G uplink
pipe without packet loss and with Enhanced Forward Error Correction
(EFEC) suitable for extremely long distance amplified DWDM network.
PL-2000 is fully integrated with PacketLights WDM product family.
The PL-2000 can be managed by HTTP/ HTTPS web browsers, CLI,
PacketLights EMS or by any 3rd party SNMP system.
This solution fits perfectly:
Service providers multi service access platform
Transporting multi-services over long distance optical network
Upgrading legacy infrastructure with new services
Building efficient and flexible CWDM/DWDM solutions for Enterprises
Fast deployment of services over existing OTN Networks

Versatile DWDM Amplification Solutions

PacketLights optical amplifier unit PL-1000IL meets the demanding

requirements of large distances and attenuations of todays DWDM networks.
FEATURE OVERVIEW

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Cost effective, compact 1U platform with

single, dual or quad DWDM amplifiers

The PL-1000IL is designed to extend the power link budget of DWDM

solutions in a cost effective manner. The PL-1000IL provides amplification for a range of optical solutions starting from 4 wavelengths to up
to the full C-Band and incorporates several types of low-noise EDFAs
Booster, Inline, Pre-Amplifier and Midstage.

Offers several EDFA types:

Booster
Inline
Pre-Amplifiers
Midstage
Raman

Supports AGC (Automatic Gain Control)

and APC (Automatic Power Control) operation modes
Monitoring on the input and output power
and user configurable gain
Embedded Optical Supervisory Channel
for remote management and topology
detection
Dual AC or DC pluggable Power Supply
and pluggable FAN Unit
Supports single and dual fiber operation
Built-In Eye Safety Mechanism
Optional Intergrated Modules:

Optical Switch Module

Up to 2 optional DCMs
Up to 16 channels MUX/DEMUX

Depending on the customer requirements, the PL-1000IL can operate

in APC or AGC modes. The AGC operation mode enables seamless
wavelengths add/drop functionality without interference to the other
active channels. In addition, the EDFA gain is controlled, adjusted and
monitored by the user. The APC operating mode allows the maintenance of constant output power.
The EDFAs are gain flattened and have low Optical Signal to Noise
Ratio (OSNR), thus enabling cascading of several EDFAs to form
amplified link over long distance. PL-1000IL is fully integrated with
PacketLights WDM product family. In addition, PL-1000IL unit are fully
managed, configured, and monitored via PacketLights user-friendly
Web-based management tool, PacketLight LightWatchTM NMS.
PL-1000IL is ideal of applications such as:

Extending the optical link budget to meet distance and attenuation

requirements of DWDM networks
High throughput Metro Ethernet connectivity over large distances
Upgrade the optical link budget to support 10G, 40G and 100G
services
Reducing number of regenerators and sites along fiber
Overcome old fiber infrastructure high loss
Facility protection for fiber redundancy solution

Encryption solution feeding OTN networks
Bit transparent without any reduction of
throughput
High end Encryption core:
GCM- AES-256 Layer-1 data encryption
Periodical Diffie Hellman key exchange
Complies with NIST FIPS-140-2
Level 2 and NSA Suite B requirements
Low latency connectivity, ideal for
Data Center & Financial applications
Remote management and topology
discovery
Uses pluggable SFP/SFP+ optics for
both service and uplinks

The PL-1000TE cryptography performs layer-1 AES-256 Encryption for each

of the passing services at full bandwidth. The encryption provides end-to-end
transparency of data and clock with low latency of less than 12usec for 10GbE.
PacketLights comprehensive encryption solution ensures three major concerns
of optical link security:
Confidentiality- preventing disclosure of information to unauthorized parties
Data integrity- ensuring that the message has not been altered
Authentication- validating that both parties involved are indeed who they
claim to be
On the management plane, the PL-1000TE-Crypto supports the secured
management protocols HTTPS, SSH, SNMPv3 and RADIUS, roll based user
password and firewall. The PL-1000TE-Crypto also detects degradation in the
fiber link performance for automatic detection of tapping attempt.
The PL-1000TE-Crypto fits to the following applications:
Secured remote data center connectivity for government and financial institutions
Cloud network providers and ISP secured fiber network infrastructure
Feeder of encrypted services to Optical Transport Networks (OTN)
Managed encrypted wavelength services offered by service providers
Internal data center secured connectivity

Supports full C-Band Tunable

DWDM Line sides (SFP/SFP+)
Optional integrated EDFAs, Mux/Demux
and Optical Switch modules
