New Products To Maximise Data Capacity
|
|
BBN International announces new solutions for increasing data capacity
on optical fibre transmission systems. Using phase shift modulation to
improve signal quality and performance for high data rate systems,
differential quadrature phase modulation to double the data rate for a
given transmission speed and optical interleaving to double channel
counts in DWDM systems, existing and new optical links can be used for
far greater data rates. |
|
|
|
For phase modulated optical communication systems, the delay line
interferometer converts phase modulation to amplitude modulation.
For 2.5, 10, 20 or 40Gbps commercial DPSK signal reception. |

Using a step-phase interferometer DWDM channels are combined to
double the capacity.
The current standard optical interleaver product family supports
100-200, 50-100, 25-50, and 12.5-25 GHz channel spacing, covering up
to 90, 180, 360, and 720 channels, respectively, as well as other
custom spacings in that range, such as 33.33-66.66 GHz.
Dual stage and asymmetric interleavers are also available. |
