02ds-pm Roadm Flex H4m-Ekinops
The PM ROADM FLEX-H4M adds advanced functionality to any optical transport network. It can be
combined with either EKINOPS optical multiplexers or splitters/combiners to support full colorless,
directionless, contentionless and gridless (CDCG) system configuration. Automatic per-channel
APPLICATIONS power balancing optimizes performance to achieve the highest Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio (OSNR)
possible and Flexgrid compatibility enables gridless, multirate designs by accommodating channels
• Inter-network connectivity
with different spectral widths and spacing requirements.
• Optical mesh networks
• Automatic power balanced networks Having a compact and flexible form factor means “plug-and-play” scalability that allows the operator
• Flexgrid networks to add degrees when and where necessary without disrupting traffic on the existing degrees.
Scalable from two to four degrees, the PM ROADM FLEX-H4M extends the network beyond simple
point-topoint and ring configurations to spurs and even optical mesh. It also eliminates the need for
back-toback transponders normally required for inter-network connectivity by providing an optical
layer junction point for pure wavelength traffic.

MANAGEMENT
The EKINOPS PM ROADM FLEX-H4M can be managed through SNMP or via the EKINOPS standard element level management interfaces, which include
a Command Line Interface (CLI) and an EKINOPS Graphical User Interface (GUI). The CLI is accessible via Secure Socket Shell (SSH) and Telnet remotely or
via a local serial port on the management board.
Complete performance monitoring and management are provided, including laser shutdown status, amplifier configuration parameters, input power,
and output power. The EKINOPS PM ROADM FLEX-H4M is also supported by Celestis NMS, the Ekinops advanced Network Management System.
