SDN ROADM Add/Drop

The Add/Drop module enables muxing and demuxing local signals into a ROADM.

Product description

Within the ROADM node, the Add/Drop modules serves as a gateway for muxing and demuxing DWDM data channels into a long-haul system. CzechLight offers multiple options for variable ROADM architecture. All supported modules offer Flexgrid, Colorless, and Directionless properties. The WSS-based modules implement the Contentionless feature when redundant setup is used.
The device supports SDN control via RESTCONF, NETCONF and YANG, as well as a local CLI. As a fully integrated CzechLight product, all metrics are available live over model-driven telemetry feed. It has the standard 1U form factor, with redundant fan tray and hot-swap power supplies with AC/DC input options.
