Prisma IP™ 10 GbE VOD Line Card
Description
The Prisma IP™ 10 GbE Line Card family of products consists of
Transmitter (OTX), Receiver (ORX), and Transceiver (OTR)
modules. These modules combine a 10 Gbps long haul interface
and a 10 Port Ethernet Switch, enabling the ability to create 10
Gbps IP networks. The front card contains the 10 GbE optics
and electronics with the switch fabric. The rear card contains 10
SFP cages for insertion of optical modules.
The Prisma IP 10 GbE OTX / ORX / OTR long haul interface
ensures transport at optimum cost efficiency, while also
supporting the requirements of a variety of VOD networks.
Tunable DWDM optics are available to provide maximum
network flexibility and enable a cost-efficient Automated
‘Broadcast and Select’ architecture. The ‘Broadcast and Select’
approach offers lower cost network scaling by eliminating
expensive muxes/demuxes and enabling bandwidth upgrades
through remote provisioning. In addition to tunable optics the
Prisma IP 10 GbE Line Cards support 1310 nm transmission for
short range 10 Gbps network interfaces. On the client side,
short, medium and long haul (up to 70 km) GbE SFP modules
are available.
The integrated switch assures maximum bandwidth use and reduces server bottlenecks. This switch is an Ethernet
backbone switch providing 10 full duplex GbE ports. The switch supports full rate switching and port trunking.
