Product Name: Wavelength Division Multiplexer (WDM)

Product Description

Nortel's Wavelength Division Multiplexer (WDM) Portfolio combines multiple
streams of information (wavelengths) for transmission across a single physical
connection. A WDM infrastructure is ideal in situations where fiber is
expensive, for applications requiring large amounts of bandwidth, or when
storage or flexible service rate transport is required. With Nortel's leadership
in WDM networks, Nortel is uniquely qualified to design, deliver, and implement
efficient and resilient WDM solutions.

• Common
  Photonic Layer
  The Common Photonic Layer (CPL) is the key building block in transforming
  the network towards Adaptive, All Optical Intelligent networking. It
  leverages years of proven expertise in developing and building Metro,
  Regional and Long Haul Optical Networks, and offers a completely disruptive
  approach for simplification of the photonic layer by separating the Service
  Network Elements (NEs) from the Optical Line. CPL supports enhanced ROADM (eROADM)
  capabilities, allowing unrestricted add/drop and redirection of any
  wavelength at any port, enabling on-the-fly wavelength insertion/termination
  and addition of new optical paths (branches) without re-engineering or
  service interruption.
  
• Optical
  Long Haul 1600
  The Optical Long Haul 1600 incorporates a modular optical amplifier design
  with the MOR Plus and Optical 1600G amplifiers.
  
• Optical
  Metro 5000 Series
  The Nortel Optical Metro 5000 Series harnesses the power of WDM (Wavelength
  Division Multiplexing) to transparently deliver high bandwidth network
  services across an open, scalable and survivable optical transport platform.
  
• Optical
  Metro 5100
  The Optical Metro 5100 is a compact Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing
  (CWDM) platform that is designed to cost effectively extend optical
  broadband services to the network edge.
  
• Optical
  Metro 5200
  The Optical Metro 5200 is a forecast-tolerant, DWDM data-optimized,
  survivable platform for metropolitan access and interoffice applications.
  
• Optical
  Modeler
  Optical Modeler is the link engineering tool supporting design and
  implementation of Nortel’s Common Photonic Layer (CPL) networks. It is
  intended for Nortel customers as well as Sales and Engineering teams who
  would like to evaluate different CPL deployment scenarios while facilitating
  ordering process and project documentation.
  
• Optical
  Multiservice Edge 6500
  The Optical Multiservice Edge 6500 (OME 6500) is a metro core optical
  platform that efficiently manages and transports converged TDM, data, and
  wavelength services. OME 6500’s wide array of services, fully non-blocking
  80G VC12 switch matrix, scalable L2 service switch with extensive Quality of
  Service (QoS) support, and electronic Dynamically Compensating Optics (eDCO)
  that support multi-span links of over 2,000 kilometers without in-line
  dispersion compensation equipment are some of the key attributes that allow
  service providers a smooth migration to a reliable and scalable Ethernet
  infrastructure while maintaining minimal infrastructure costs.
  
• Optical
  Planner
  Optical Planner is easy-to-use capacity planning software for optical
  networks.
