Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch-1
Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch-4 | R E L E A S E 1 . X
The Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS)-1 and Alcatel-Lucent 1830 PSS-4 represent a new
type of photonic-switching access platform for metro wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). Implementing
Zero-Touch Photonics, they transform traditional WDM into a cost-effective, low-footprint and fully flexible
transport layer with complete visibility and control of individual wavelengths. This transformation simplifies
broadband service delivery, speeds time-to-revenue generation and facilitates bandwidth expansion in optical
transport network (OTN)-based metro access networks.
The Alcatel-Lucent 1830 PSS-1 is a compact, one rack unit (RU) customer premises equipment (CPE), hardened
for outdoor deployment and available in different fixed configurations. The Alcatel-Lucent 1830 PSS-4 has
a two RU chassis with four slots available for service cards, the same cards supported by the Alcatel-Lucent
1830 PSS-16 and the Alcatel-Lucent PSS-32 (see Figure 1).
Applications
The Alcatel-Lucent 1830 PSS-1/PSS-4
supports the transport and delivery
of multiple services in a variety of
environments:
• Transport networks for service
providers to aggregate SONET/SDH,
IP/MPLS, Mobile, Broadband (xDSL,
PON) traffic
• Metro network extension to the
customer premises through costeffective CWDM/DWDM technology
up to 10G
• Campus networks for data center
protection or data sharing for
organizations such as universities,
hospitals, banks and airports
• Multi-campus networks for cooperation
among public and private companies
and optimization of leased dark fiber
• Metropolitan or national research
networks that can be combined
with the Alcatel-Lucent 1830 PSS-16/
PSS-32 to extend these networks to
regional distances
Key benefits
