In Backbone Networks
In backbone networks, efficient
use of existing fiber is critical to
satisfying bandwidth demands. The
Alcatel-Lucent 1675 LambdaUnite
MSS efficiently aggregates and
grooms traffic to help maximize
bandwidth utiliza tion and lower
per-bit costs. The optional, fully
trans parent OC-48/STM-16 inter -
face card can help carriers to cost-
effectively address wavelength service
delivery using the existing SONET/
SDH network infrastructure.
Figure 1 shows two complete
Alcatel-Lucent 1675 LambdaUnite
MSSs in one rack, with a capacity
of 640G.

With DWDM Systems and
Transoceanic Applications
When the Alcatel-Lucent 1675
LambdaUnite MSS is deployed
with an Alcatel-Lucent dense WDM
(DWDM) system, you can achieve
significant equipment savings by
using express optics because expen-
sive optical transport units (OTUs)
on the DWDM equipment are
eliminated.
The Alcatel-Lucent 1675
LambdaUnite MSS is well suited
for transoceanic applications. The
transoceanic protocol mechanism
supported by the system helps to
effectively protect groomed and
consolidated traffic for your
valuable undersea fiber route.
