JDSU Releases 50 GHz WSS

LPC 50 GHz - 1x2 and 1x4 single-slot WSSs for either small-node or emerging edge and access applications, pushing re-configurability further to the edge of networks with a cost-and size-optimized solution.

Mini 50 GHz with Built-in Optical Power Monitor (OPM) - an extension of the current Mini 50 GHz that offers NEMs a cost-effective, high-density integrated solution.

Nano 50 GHz - a highly compact, standalone solution that lets NEMs create higher-density transport blades. Initially used in the JDSU Super Transport Blade, it can be integrated with all major optical components onto a single blade and let operators use dual WSSs on a single blade for next-generation route-and-select architectures."This extended portfolio of WSS solutions will support 40/100 G network rollouts that will continue over the next several years. It's a great milestone," said Gurpreet Mand, director of ROADM products at JDSU.
