Summary
The Alcatel-Lucent 1692 MSE is a cost-effective CWDM system intended for the metropolitan access and enterprise markets to help providers deliver popular high-revenue, bandwidth-intensive services, such as triple play, video, 3G mobile, SAN extension and enterprise GigE.
The Alcatel-Lucent 1692 MSE is able to multiplex up to 16 channels compatible with ITU G.694.2 CWDM grid in a single network element (NE). It can be configured as a terminal or optical add/drop multiplexer (OADM) providing optical layer protection capabilities for both point-to-point and ring topologies. It can be equipped with the traffic concentrator 4xAny (multiplexes up to four low-speed client signals into a 2.5 Gb/s SONET/SDH signal) or 2xGE-FC (multiplexes two GigE or FC signals using the GFP-T standard), reducing the cost of each client service and maximizing optical channel usage.
