Muxponder M1200-2-12Q


Aggregates up to 12 x 100G clients and transmits up to 1200 Gbit/s on two wavelengths


The M1200 series units provide aggregation of multi-service client signals Ethernet (100GE), OTN (OTU4) or Ethernet (400GE) and their transmission over a WDM line in two linear streams up to 600 Gbit/s. Implemented modifications M1200-2-12Q and M1200-2-3QD to support various client configurations.

The line of muxponders implements the ability to fine-tune the parameters of the linear interface at transmission and reception to improve the characteristics of the linear signal and optimize digital processing algorithms for coherent reception. Intermediate modulation formats (Fractional QAM) with a non-integer value of symbol efficiency SE [bps] are supported, which provides the possibility to improve OSNRT for particular scenarios.

Key points about the M1200 muxponder line

• maximum throughput per slot in the line

• the possibility of scaling the communication channel on the existing infrastructure

• advanced options for setting the line interface

• multiservice clients

• redundancy support

• lightning protection (increased resistance to rapid change in the SOP-signal)

• optimal balance between bandwidth and distance
