NOVEMBER 20, 2008 -- Transmode (search for Transmode) has extended its previously launched 4-Gbit/sec CWDM/DWDM Multi-Service Muxponder capabilities to the TS-Series. The new 5810 Multi-Service Muxponder is targeted for mobile backhaul and other next-generation network (NGN) migration applications for both network operator and enterprise customers.
The new 5810 Multi-Service Muxponder is designed to allow operators and enterprise customers to deploy multiple services over a single 4-Gbit/sec CWDM or DWDM wavelength. The approach is ideally suited to NGN access migration and combining 2G/3G mobile backhaul using a combination of SONET/SDH and GbE, Transpmode asserts>
Using four client ports and two 4-Gbit/sec line ports to support optional line protection, the 5810 is designed to offer users great scalability in a highly compact form factor. For example, users can grow node capacity from a number of SONET/SDH clients to hybrid SONET/SDH/GbE/Fibre Channel services delivery all on a single wavelength. A typical example, such a mobile backhaul SDH to GbE transition scenario, could be upgrading from 2x OC-3/STM-1 to 2x OC-3/STM-1 or OC-12/STM-4 plus 2x Gigabit Ethernet services. This provides considerable upgrade capacity and therefore future proofs the backhaul network, the company says.
As the 5810 includes functionality such as in-band management, the unit can be deployed in a 1U chassis to provide a compact, low power, and low cost multi-service add/drop node, according to Transmode. The company says that by taking advantage of its Low Power Design concept, the unit ensures low total cost of ownership with worst case power consumption for the unit of only 14 W. The same unit can be configured to support any multi-service combination up to the maximum line rate of 4 Gbits/sec and also a 3x 4-Gbit/sec regenerator function to reduce spares holdings and operating expenses.
The unit also supports SONET/SDH and GbE performance monitoring as well as GbE client utilization data. In addition, the 5810 also supports 1+1 protection capabilities via dual line ports.
The 5810 will be commercially available in December 2008 and is already scheduled for customer acceptance testing for applications including SDH/SONET to GbE NGN migration.
