Lynx delivers and supports DWDM and CWDM transponders that help operators extend reach, light dark fibre, and add dedicated high-capacity or encrypted wavelengths on long-haul, regional, metro, and data-centre routes. Each one-rack-unit chassis maps 10 GbE through 400 GbE services and, when configured, two 800 GbE channels plus matching Fibre Channel rates onto an OTN-framed wavelength. Built-in Layer 1 AES-256 encryption can be activated for security-sensitive workloads. Standards-based pluggable optics keep power draw and rack use low, and licence keys let you add bandwidth or enable encryption in measured steps without replacing hardware.
A four-slice chassis that can be configured as 4 × 100 GbE muxponders or single 400 GbE transponders per slice. When fitted with the optional mux / demux, EDFA, and optical switch, spans can approach 4 000 km using CFEC, oFEC, or SD-FEC.
Carries up to twelve 400 GbE or forty-eight 100 GbE services in one rack unit. Lynx can supply the chassis with internal mux / demux and EDFA, or leave those functions external if you prefer existing line-system components.
Uses four plug-in 200 G coherent optics for metro or regional spans; a DP-QPSK mode supports distances near 1 000 km. Optional AES-256 encryption is available when compliance rules apply.
Aggregates diverse protocols into one 200 G wavelength. Integrated amplifiers and an optional switch can extend reach to roughly 200 km un-repeated or about 1 000 km with inline sites, depending on fibre quality and configuration.
Offers muxponder, transponder, or add-drop operation for short rings and access links. Hardware encryption and line-side GFEC or SD-FEC are optional features that can be enabled at purchase or later by licence.
Adds GCM-AES-256 encryption to eight 10 G services in one rack unit without impacting throughput. Meets FIPS 140-2 Level 2 and Common Criteria EAL2 when those certifications are required.
Yes. Each platform accepts a multi-rate, multi-protocol mix : Ethernet, Fibre Channel, SDI video and OTU, on the client side.
They use standards-based pluggable optics and pay-as-you-grow licences, so additional wavelengths or client rates can be enabled without forklift upgrades.
They are designed for long-haul, metro and data-centre interconnect routes, giving service providers and enterprises a cost-effective path to expand capacity and protect mission-critical data.
