FLASHWAVE® 7500

Multifunction ROADM/DWDM Platform

shaping tomorrow with you

The FLASHWAVE 7500 platform offers

advanced DWDM, optical hubbing,

ROADM, and network capabilities to

deliver and manage growing metro and

regional networks. The system supports

both ANSI and ETSI-certied solutions,

with exible congurations to optimize

metro and regional networks.

2

Metro and regional optical networks are entering a period of dramatic

expansion, driven by demand for high-speed data services, legacy

TDM services, and high-bandwidth video services. Competing

successfully requires a network architecture that consolidates and

manages all high-bandwidth services over a single core optical

transport network. The FLASHWAVE 7500 system provides a high-

capacity ROADM platform for metro and regional networks, improving

operational efciency, reducing operations expenses, and lowering

overall network costs.

Flexible Architecture, Deployed Worldwide

Chosen by major service providers worldwide, the FLASHWAVE 7500

platform is deployed in North America, Europe and Asia. American

National Standards Institute (ANSI) and European Telecom Standards

Institute (ETSI)-certied versions allow operation in any global

environment. The platform aggregates TDM, SONET, Ethernet, and

video services onto a single core optical transport infrastructure,

improving efciency, exibility, and cost-effectiveness.

Field-Proven Technology

As the industry-leading metro ROADM platform, thousands of

FLASHWAVE 7500 nodes are in operation with dozens of carriers

worldwide, providing proven real-world performance. In addition, the

systems go through rigorous internal system testing and verication

prior to each software release. The FLASHWAVE 7500 platform has also

been extensively tested by numerous outside facilities. These include

customer test labs, NEBS, UL, Telcordia OSMINE, in addition to federal

government testing and certication by the U.S. Defense Information

Systems Agency (DISA)-sanctioned Joint Interoperability Test

Command (JITC).

Recent Product Enhancements

New FLASHWAVE 7500 features and enhancements improve network

performance, enable new applications, and offer DWDM network and

operational efciencies. These new capabilities deliver signicant

capital and operational cost benets.

OTN Muxponder

Optical Transport Network (OTN) technology has been used for years in

DWDM equipment, implemented as G.709 digital wrapper for

wavelengths. OTN provides a common frame structure, optical layer

Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM), General

Communications Channel (GCC0), and Forward Error Correction (FEC)

for improved performance.

Carriers are adopting OTN for sub-wavelength multiplexing and

aggregation applications, in addition to its role as a digital wrapper for

wavelengths. OTN multiplexing offers several benets over other

techniques, including universal containers supporting any signal type,

transparent aggregation of signals, an industry-standard multiplexing

scheme, and robust OAM.

With the introduction of the OTN muxponder unit on the FLASHWAVE

7500 platform, carriers can enable OTN multiplexing and services on

existing ROADM networks. Supporting eight client ports of OC-3,

OC-12, OC-48, GbE, and OTU1 services, the OTN muxponder maps all

services into standard OTN containers and a 10G OTU2 network

interface. In addition to the OTN muxponder unit, Fujitsu is adding

40G OTU3 support to the existing 40G transponder cards. OTN is

transforming optical transport networks—with Fujitsu leading the way.

FLASHWAVE 7500 and 9500 Integration

Carriers can now have the best of both worlds, with the ability to mix

and match transponders and muxponders from either the FLASHWAVE

7500 or 9500 platforms, over a common FLASHWAVE 7500 ROADM

network.

Multifunction ROADM/DWDM Platform

Building the Metro Backbone

With thousands of FLASHWAVE 7500 nodes deployed, existing carriers

and networks can upgrade to the latest technologies and

advancements, such as the Fujitsu 100G transponder and 100G

muxponders, all running over their existing ROADM infrastructure.

FLASHWAVE 7500 and 9500 integration enables carriers to expand

and enhance their network without the need for costly overbuilds.

40G Improves Network Utilization

The FLASHWAVE 7500 system supports 10G, 40G, and 100G (via 9500

trib) wavelengths with a wide array of transponder and muxponder

service units.

Recently, 40G units have become increasingly popular and widely

deployed, providing carriers with a fourfold improvement in capacity.

Fujitsu supports both coherent and non-coherent 40G units. The

non-coherent 40G units are based on Adaptive Dual Phase Shift

Keying (ADPSK) and provide a cost-effective method for expanding

capacity in metro and regional DWDM networks. However, these 40G

ADPSK units are not applicable on high Polarization Mode Dispersion

(PMD) ber spans.

PMD is an optical impairment with some older bers that limits both

transmission speeds and span distances. The 40G coherent

transponders enable deployment and operation over high PMD routes,

which were previously limited to 10G operation. Carriers reap

substantial savings by eliminating the need to remove and replace

problematic high-PMD routes.

Sub-Wavelength Aggregation Reduces Capex

The Flexponder unit is an 8-port multirate, multiservice unit that

integrates SONET STS-1 aggregation and switching along with WDM on

a single card. Commonly referred to as a “Multiservice Provisioning

Platform (MSPP)-on-a-blade,” these cards perform the functions

previously performed by standalone SONET MSPPs, saving equipment

costs, space, and power.

The exponder can be used as a single unit, supporting eight

multirate, multiservice ports along with an integrated 20G STS-1

switch fabric for trafc grooming, or with multiple units. When using

multiple exponders, the system provides sub-wavelength

aggregation and grooming across all units installed in a shelf with a

160G STS-1 distributed switching matrix.

Stacked Muxponders Reduce Remote Costs

The FLASHWAVE 7500 Extension Shelf provides a low-cost method of

extending services to customer premises or remote locations. Instead

of a full ROADM node at the remote location, the Extension Shelf can

be deployed with a single transponder or muxponder, utilizing the

network-side optical interface as a single-channel transport system.

The limitation of this approach is that many remote sites require more

low-speed aggregation ports than available on a single 10G

muxponder unit. By combining multiple 10G muxponder cards with a

40G muxponder card in a stacked conguration, carriers can efciently

aggregate remote services and transport them over a single 40G

channel, without the cost of a full ROADM node.

A similar application is to provide capacity expansion and ber relief

on fully lled DWDM networks. By upgrading to 40G wavelengths,

carriers can expand their network capacity by a factor of four, without

costly network overbuilds. Existing 10G muxponders, providing

low-rate client OC-3/12/48 or GbE services, can be combined with the

40G muxponder unit in a stacked conguration to enable 40G or even

100G DWDM transport.

Enhanced Software Operational Features

Several operational features and enhancements have been

incorporated to improve performance and reduce operation time and

costs.

Capability/Feature Value

Security Enhancements Added protection for user passwords and network

ports ensures the utmost security from network

compromise for the most demanding, secure

network environments

troubleshooting and prevention

Client-side DWDM XFPs Reduces costs by eliminating the need for

back-to-back transponders when interconnecting

As a unied, scalable platform, the FLASHWAVE 7500 system offers

exible congurations to support a wide range of applications,

including:

• FLASHWAVE 7500 WSS ROADM (1–12 degree optical hubbing)

• FLASHWAVE 7500 2-degree ROADM

• FLASHWAVE 7500 Extension Shelf for low-cost, remote nodes

• FLASHWAVE 7500 In-Line Amplier (ILA)

The FLASHWAVE 7500 optical line cards and software are common to

all congurations, reducing operational costs for engineering,

training, installation and spare parts. Chassis options include a

23-inch North American version, a 19-inch version,

and a 500 mm front-access ETSI version.

The FLASHWAVE 7500 system also supports

managed service extensions with the FLASHWAVE

CDS Micro Packet Optical Networking Platform

(Packet ONP) and FLASHWAVE 7120 Access CWDM/

DWDM platform. The FLASHWAVE CDS is a compact

2RU customer premises platform that provides

advanced Ethernet services and legacy SONET

services. The FLASHWAVE 7120 provides a small,

cost-effective WDM solution for transporting

multiple wavelengths in access applications.

The FLASHWAVE 7500 platform supports both

mixed 10G and 40G wavelengths on the same

network, enabling carriers to efciently and

cost-effectively upgrade their WDM capacity,

without the need for expensive overbuild networks.

FLASHWAVE 7500 WSS ROADM

The FLASHWAVE 7500 wavelength selective switch

(WSS) ROADM provides a powerful and cost-

effective solution for metro and regional networks.

Supporting up to 40 channels and capacity up to

1.6 Tb, the system provides an ideal solution for

consolidated core optical networks, eliminating

costly multiple overlay networks for each service

type. Advanced features, such as automatic power

balancing, optical hubbing, and A-Z wavelength

provisioning, reduce operational expenses and improve service

implementation times. Congurations range from simple 2-degree

ROADMs to multidegree optical hub nodes supporting complex mesh

network architectures.

FLASHWAVE 7500 2D ROADM

An economical choice for locations only requiring two degrees of

connectivity, as opposed to multidegree hubbing, the FLASHWAVE

7500 2D ROADM can be deployed alone or in mixed applications

along with FLASHWAVE 7500 WSS optical hub nodes. The 2D ROADM

provides full 1–40 channel support, ring, linear, and terminal

congurations, and utilizes all of the same optical line cards for

client-side service interfaces. In addition, the 2D ROADM supports up

to eight transponder slots on the same shelf as the ROADM switch/

muxponder and amplier cards, enabling single-shelf deployments for

low channel-count sites. Additional tributary shelves can always be

added when additional slot capacity is required.

FLASHWAVE 7500 Extension Shelf

The FLASHWAVE 7500 Extension Shelf is a

non-ROADM standalone conguration designed

to extend individual services to customer

premises. Primarily intended for single-channel

extensions, the system offers very low-cost

service delivery without the need for DWDM

layer ampliers, optical switches, and

multiplexer/demultiplexer units.

FLASHWAVE 7500 ILA

Large optical networks require amplication

every 60–100 Km, depending on the ber type,

data rates, and service mix. At those midpoints

where service or wavelength drops are not

required, the FLASHWAVE 7500 ILA offers a very

economical solution to re-amplify the WDM

signal and extend the network reach. If service

or wavelength drops are ever needed at an ILA

location, the FLASHWAVE 7500 ILA can be

upgraded in-service to a full ROADM node.

Core Transport Infrastructure

As a high-capacity optical transport platform, the FLASHWAVE 7500

ROADM is ideal for aggregating large, high-bandwidth services over a

single optical core network. Previously, carriers typically deployed

separate transport networks for each service type and network layer.

The FLASHWAVE 7500 consolidates TDM, SONET, Ethernet, and video

services into a single DWDM infrastructure, providing substantial

savings and streamlining the network architecture, while providing

additional capacity for future network growth.

Collapsed Network Functions

The FLASHWAVE 7500 system is more than just a pure optical transport

platform, as it also supports sub-wavelength grooming and

aggregation for legacy SONET services. In a typical network, SONET

MSPPs provide STS-1 grooming and aggregation for OC- 3/12/48

interfaces, with an OC-192 interconnection to the DWDM layer. Most

DWDM locations also have many subtending SONET MSPPs, providing

STS-1 level aggregation, grooming, and switching.

The FLASHWAVE 7500 Flexponder unit eliminates the need for

subtending SONET MSPPs, by integrating SONET physical interfaces,

STS-1 switching, and SONET protection switching into a single unit

along with DWDM. The FLASHWAVE 7500 Flexponder supports eight

multirate, multiservice ports that can be individually provisioned for

OC-3/12/48 or GbE services, with a high-speed, full-band tunable OTU2

(10G DWDM) network interface. The Flexponder can be used as a

single unit providing eight multirate ports along with an integrated

20G STS-1 switch fabric. It can be deployed in pairs, functioning as a

SONET MSPP on a blade with SONET 1+1 and UPSR protection

switching, along with the integrated STS-1 fabric. Finally, multiple

units can be deployed supporting up to 160G of STS-1 switching and

aggregation across all ports in the shelf.

High-PMD Routes

For optical routes with high polarization mode dispersion (PMD), the

FLASHWAVE 7500 platform supports both 10G and 40G transponders

supercially designed for problematic high-PMD ber. The 40G

coherent transponder and muxponder units utilize advanced DP-QSPK

modulation and coherent optical receivers, which improves

performance over high-PMD ber.

Video Distribution

Perfectly suited for video applications in the cable and IPTV industry,

the FLASHWAVE 7500 platform lets service providers distribute both

broadcast and VoD video streams over large metro and regional

networks from headend ofces to video serving ofces or distribution

hubs.

Private Network Applications

As the backbone infrastructure for large private network applications,

the FLASHWAVE 7500 system ensures that nancial institutions,

educational consortiums and federal government installations can

accommodate trafc growth without costly network upgrades.
