Ultimate Scalability and Versatility
Fully scalable from two wavelengths up to 16, the Alcatel-Lucent 1692 MSE allows service providers to purchase only the capacity required and then to increase capacity only as consumer demand increases. That is, as requirements change over time, the system’s manageability and func- tionality can be adapted in incre- mental steps.
Adaptable solutions allow quick reaction to rapidly changing market conditions and ensure timely imple- mentation of new services. The
Alcatel-Lucent 1692 MSE ensures that combinations of very different client services (SONET/SDH, SAN, IP, video) can be transported trans- parently on a single wavelength, without the need to upgrade the whole network; this shortens the overall time-to-market and increases the number of services that can be delivered. Each wavelength can be unidirectional or bidirectional. The Alcatel-Lucent 1692 MSE tributary cards feature hot plug-and-play optics, so the user can customize provisioning while the remainder of the NE is under load.
