NEC Corporation of America Introduces Ethernet/TDM Service Delivery System for Metro Access and Cable Networks

Business Wire
NEC Corporation of America (NEC), a leading technology provider of
IT, network and identity management solutions, announced today the
North American availability of its SpectralWave� MW0500-series, a
Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) service delivery
platform for metropolitan access and cable networks. All
configurations of the MW-0500-series provide an economical,
eco-friendly and easy-to-deploy solution for a wide variety of
managed wavelength service delivery needs, including: storage-area
networking, fiber channel relief, IP offloading and high-speed
optical Ethernet transport. NEC�s MW0500-series has been
successfully deployed in carrier and cable networks around the
world. Leveraging this global success, NEC has brought the
MW0500-series to North America to meet operator demand for low cost
transport systems that could deliver existing services without much
added expense, and also provide transparent integration across
metro-access, metro-core and long-haul networks. Delivering extra
bandwidth at a fraction of traditional optical platform cost, the
MW0500-series is a strong complement to NEC�s �Generation Free��
Networking suite of optical networking solutions that allow
operators the ability to integrate new optical elements to
dynamically �right-size� their networks. In North America, NEC will
target metro access networks where the demand for low-cost
alternatives to add capacity is needed in order to overcome
bottlenecks that exist beyond the last mile. NEC will also focus on
the cable and smaller distribution access networks serving small
businesses and larger residential applications, such as the
delivery of Video on Demand and Fiber to the Curb. �We�anticipate
significant growth for the MW0500-series,� said Rocky Kler, vice
president and general manager, Optical Network Systems Division,
NEC Corporation of America. �We believe our MW0500-series will be
well-received by operators as it provides�flexibility�and cost
points especially in the Ethernet and�10G segment." The NEC
MW0500-series is compact, can transmit up to four bi-directional
wavelengths over a single fiber core and is available in two system
offerings: SpectralWave MW0521 is a 19-inch rack-mountable 1RU
system for point-to-point applications. It can be equipped for
transmission of up to four 2.5G lambdas or two 10G lambdas.
Available transponders include single-channel OC-48/STM-16,
two-channel GbE muxponder, single-channel OC 192/STM-64,
single-channel 10GbE, and a Free-Rate transponder. The Free-Rate
transponder supports lower SONET (Synchronous Optical Network) /
SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) rates and Fiber Channel.
Transponders can operate independently over separate fibers, or in
conjunction with an integrated CWDM filter module to provide
bidirectional, single-fiber transmission. SpectralWave MW0522
utilizes the same transponder set and CWDM filter modules as the
MW0521, but provides twice the capacity (40G) in a 2U rack space.
In addition, MW0522 can operate in point-to-point, linear OADM
(Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer), or OADM ring configuration to
provide maximum deployment flexibility. Key operator benefits
include reduced operating costs with a 1U / 2U type offering, which
provides optics savings from lower power consumption and reduced
space requirements. In addition, with support for bi-directional
transmission, NEC reduces operator leased fiber costs. Other
benefits include the system�s support of Ethernet network
applications, where it delivers enhanced bandwidth by transmitting
Gbit / 10Gbit Ethernet transparently. For further information on
