techweb.com April 19, 1999, Issue: 1156 Section: Special Report: New growth markets/emerging OEMs Some Key Players Alcatel (www.alcatel.com or www.usa.alcatel.com), Paris, earlier this month announced its 1690 OADM, a 16-channel DWDM system tailored for the metropolitan and enterprise markets. Based on the same platform as the company's 1640 LXT for long-haul applications, the 1690 OADM provides transponders for interfaces ranging from 100 Mbits/s to 2.5 Gbits/s, and is upgradable to 32 channels. --- Ciena Corp. (www.ciena.com), Linthicum, Md., last month announced that it was beginning to ship its next-generation MultiWave 4000, a 40-channel DWDM system scalable to 96 channels with 50-GHz channel spacing. Ciena's other long-haul system is the MultiWave 1600 Sentry (16 channels). Short-haul systems are the MultiWave Firefly (24-channel for central offices) and the MultiWave Metro (a 24-channel ring). --- Lucent Technologies (www.lucent.com/ opticalnet), Murray Hill, N.J., is currently shipping two systems and will begin shipping another this summer. The WaveStar OLS 40G is a 16-channel DWDM system for long-haul applications. Lucent's Wave-Star OLS 400G, also for long-distance transmission, is an 80-channel device that delivers up to 400-Gbit/s capacity. The system the company will introduce this summer is designed for metropolitan applications. --- Nortel Networks (www.nortelnetworks.com), San Diego, in February introduced its OPTera DWDM portfolio for next-generation "IP-over-light" communications in long-haul and metro applications. The company's OPTera LH platform for long-haul transmission features a capacity of up to 320 Gbits/s. The OPTera Metro is a 32-channel, ring-based DWDM solution with a capacity of 80 Gbits/s per fiber. --- Osicom Technologies Inc. (www.osicom.com), Santa Monica, Calif., is focusing almost exclusively on the metropolitan market. Its 32-channel GigaMux DWDM system increases total bandwidth from 2.5 to 80 Gbits/s. The system supports fault-tolerant DWDM rings as well as point-to-point network configurations, and is protocol transparent and data-rate independent in the 51-Mbit/s to 2.5-Gbit/s range.
