Transmode Incorporates JDSU Tunable XFP Transceiver Into TM-Series and TS-Series WDM Platforms
| Source: JDSU
MILPITAS, CA--(Marketwire - January 19, 2010) - JDSU (NASDAQ : JDSU ) (TSX : JDU ) today announced
that Transmode has incorporated JDSU tunable XFP transceiver technology into both
its TM-Series and TS-Series WDM platforms.
The JDSU tunable XFP transceiver is a dramatically smaller, lower power and
pluggable solution. It acts as a key interface to convert network data
streams between the electrical domain and the 10G optical domain, allowing
traffic to enter and exit dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM)
networks. Network equipment manufacturers (NEMs) integrate this technology
into their systems to help manage increased bandwidth within optical
networks in a flexible and cost effective way.
Transmode offers a wide range of optical networking products based on
Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology as well as a complete
network management suite. Transmode's widely deployed TM-Series and
TS-Series WDM platforms support all optical networking applications from
the metro edge to regional and national networks in an economical platform
which includes full ROADM switching and integrated Layer 2 Ethernet
aggregation.
"Transmode chose JDSU tunable XFP technology because it is the most
advanced tunable XFP offering available today," said Mohamad Ferej, vice
president of R&D at Transmode. "When incorporated into our WDM portfolio,
it provides a leading edge interface solution for multi-protocol metro and
regional applications."
"JDSU was able to customize and qualify the tunable XFP product in record
time by closely partnering with the Transmode engineering team," said
Sinclair Vass, senior director of EMEA business for the CCOP segment at
JDSU. "We are proud to be providing a key enabling technology to
Transmode."
