8T | 10x800G Transponder

LIR Award4.0 CPacketLight's PL-8000G is a high capacity solution for rolling out 100/400/800GbE services, or increasing existing network capacity.

The PL-8000G has 10 x 800G pluggable uplink optical modules, delivering up to 8T. The PL-8000G integrates ten mux/demux, as well as EDFA and OSW to overcome fiber attenuation and provide protection against fiber cut. This flexible solution enables pay-as-you-grow architecture, without the need to add licenses. 

PL-8000G - 10x800G 8T Transponder
High capacity solution
100GbE, 400GbE and 800GbE transported over 10 x 800G wavelengths, providing 8T capacity per system.

Flexible Design

The device provides full demarcation point between the service and the DWDM network, and is interoperable with any third party switch or router. This provides full visibility and performance monitoring of both the optical transport layer and 100/400/800GbE service interfaces.
