The emergence of higher bandwidth services such as Gigabit Ethernet, high definition video, and SAN protocols is creating the need for better efficiency of transporting these services across metro networks. The ROADM is emerging as the key element of the metro transport network and efficient utilization of wavelengths to carry a wide range of services is crucial to effective use of DWDM networks for metro transport applications. The muxponder is quickly becoming the universal solution for mapping and multiplexing a wide range of services over 2.5 and 10 Gb/s wavelengths to provide flexible, efficient transport in DWDM networks.
Galazar's advanced silicon solutions, coupled with the production quality, telecom-grade DeviceManager™ supervisor software, simplifies the application development and integration phases. Software features include OS independence, integrated tools, interrupt management, LCAS state management, resource pool management and warm start. Comprehensive documentation, integrated HTML, PDF and source comments, make the software easy to integrate into your system.
In order to ensure that our solutions are ready for network deployment, Galazar silicon and management software is verified in a real world application environment. Galazar’s reference platforms for solution validation are representative of customer applications. All platforms use the same complimentary hardware that would typically be found on a customer implementation, and offer the same types of external interfaces like SFPs for SONET/SDH and Gigabit Ethernet. These platforms also run a telecom-grade real-time operating system with high-level application software that allows for provisioning of services in a manner that would be found in network equipment.
In addition to a robust solution, this extensive testing in a real world environment allows Galazar to provide expert support, including component selection, schematic and PCB layout reviews, to go along with full device, software and reference platform documentation.
