Princeton Lightwave, Inc.(PLI), a leading supplier of
specialized optical sources, detectors and detection
sub-systems, announced the addition of detecting mixed
-mode signal capability within its line of Optical
Channel Monitors (OCM).
The detection capabilities to recognize mixed mode
signals, consisting of different bit rates and different
modulation formats within a single OCM provides
flexibility to network designers since they can use one
instrument for any data rate or data format. The OCM
uses PLI's proprietary firmware so that it can
automatically recognize given input of data rates and
channel formats in a spectrum in real time.
"A number of our customers have requested mixed
mode functionality for ease of use and for inventory
control", said PLI's Product Manager, David Jhaveri.
He further stated that the OCM can monitor signals in
any combination of data modes, 10G/40G, NRZ/RZ/CSRZ,
while accurately reporting wavelength and power in each
mode. It is like combining five OCMs in one. Addition of
this capability brings down costs for our customers thus
providing them greater value for their system." The
Optical Channel Monitor (OCM) is in production. This
design platform has been proven over the years in more
than ten thousands of delivered products.
