Overview
The LambdaDriver® Optical Transport System is a CWDM/DWDM Optical networking platform providing multifunctional modular solution for Metro,
Regional and Long haul data centric networks.
The Lambda Driver system is capable of carrying all types of services at rates ranging from 8 Mbps to 10Gbps.
The modular architecture and compact size of the system provides unmatched configuration flexibility and scalability.Topologies such as Point-to-Point,
Linear add-drop, Ring and Star are easily implemented.
Several schemes of redundancy such as Y-cabling, 1+1 trunk backup are supported at the service access level and at the trunk level.
All the supported modules are Hot-swappable enabling non-disrupting maintenance and service of the system.
Extensive management capability completes the LambdaDriver® Optical Transport System’ s definition as a high end WDM platform. Remote in-band
access is available through any SNMP-enabled Network Management System (NMS). MRV Communications’ own MegaVision Pro NMS provides a
complete GUI and End-to-End Service Monitoring feature for all LambdaDriver® products.
The LD chassis comes in three ranges for low, medium and high density services coverage. Nominated as LD400/LD800/LD1600 these are 19-inch rack
mountable chassis with modular architecture hosting different types of modules such as Transponders, Mux/DeMux or OADM modules and being
capable of supporting up to 160 DWDM wavelengths.
Two types of WDM modules are defined for the LD platform:
- “Short slot”modules are defined for usage in the LD400/LD800 Chassis or in the LD1600 “short slot”mechanical section
- “Long slot”modules are double length modules normally used in the LD1600 or other chassis supporting“long slot”modules
All modules are hot-swappable and slot independent (except the management modules).
All chassis versions support redundant and hot-swappable AC wide range Power supplies and industry standard DC power supplies. AC and DC power
supplies can be mixed on the same chassis.
Additionally, the LD chassis range includes a set of units that provide solutions for designs requiring passive devices only.
LD1600 is 11.5U high with 2 reserved slots for 2 management cards (main + redundant) and 22 general slots for transponders, OADMs, Mux, etc.
LD800 is a 160W operational load chassis, 4.5U high with 1 reserved slot for Management and 11 general slots for LD800 size modules (transponders
OADMs, Mux, etc.)
LD800P is a high power capacity chassis - 220W operational load - 4.5U high with 1 reserved slot for Management and 11 general slots for LD800 size
modules (transponders OADMs, Mux, etc.)
Note: LD800 and LD800P power supplies are not interchangeable.
LD400 is 2U high with 1 reserve slot for Management and 5 general slots for LD800 size modules (transponders OADMs Muxs etc.)
LPD300 is a 3-slot one U non-powered chassis designed for a standard 19-inch rack with that can handle up to three CWDM/ DWDM OADMs or Mux/
DeMux.
