1.6T | 2x800G Muxponder
PacketLight's PL-8000M is a high capacity solution for rolling out 800GbE, 400GbE and 100GbE services, or increasing existing network capacity.
The device has two 800G pluggable uplink optical modules, delivering up to 1.6T capacity in one system. The PL-8000M integrates mux/demux, EDFA and OSW, delivering the entire optical layer. This flexible solution enables pay-as-you-grow architecture.
Flexible Design
The PL-8000M 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 100/400/800GbE client services.
Powerful Feature Set
The PL-8000M transports a mix of 100GbE, 400GbE and 800GbE services over 2 x 800G wavelengths, delivering up to 1.6T capacity. The muxponder provides the full optical networking solution as well as protection by integrating amplifiers, mux/demux and optical switch in the same device.
