Alcatel-Lucent OMSN Product Family 4
Carrier transport
The Alcatel-Lucent OMSN products are based on a solid,
yet flexible, SDH transport architecture, offering service
providers several benefits:
• Offers purpose-built, highly robust carrier-transport
functions with reliability features for maximum service
availability, supporting zero-latency services from access
to backbone in any mixture
• Delivers unmatched manageability for fast end-to-end
service provisioning, monitoring and troubleshooting
• Enhances connectivity in all network topologies: ring,
star and mesh
• Supports high-speed services ranging from 2 Mb/s and
Ethernet up to Gigabit Ethernet (GE) and 10 Gb/s
The Alcatel-Lucent 1660 SM scales to Synchronous
Transport Module (STM)-64 support for the metro/
regional core, while the Alcatel-Lucent 1662 SMC
and the Alcatel-Lucent 1650 SMC scale to STM-16
and STM-4, respectively, for efficient network core/edge
design. The Alcatel-Lucent 1660 SM and Alcatel-Lucent
1662 SMC integrate CWDM features to extend their transport
capacity by offering telecommunications service providers:
• Bandwidth multiplication for metro
and regional applications
• Evolution from single-lambda to multiple-lambda
services within the same node
• An ideal, cost-effective CWDM solution
for optical metropolitan infrastructures
