4 Channel EDFA WDM Mux Demux Module

The WL6000-CH04 by Wolon represents the next generation of ultra-large-capacity, intelligent optical transmission platforms. Engineered for the rigorous demands of national, provincial and metropolitan core networks, this modular solution effortlessly scales into the terabit era. By combining granular WDM technology with a space-saving 1U design, the WL6000-CH04 delivers outstanding performance at a highly competitive total cost of ownership.

At just 1U high within a standard 19-inch chassis, the WL6000-CH04 accommodates four hot-swappable slots-three dedicated to diverse service cards and one for network management. This hybrid slot architecture enables seamless mixing of 10G, 100G, 200G and 400G modules, empowering network architects to tailor capacity precisely to evolving traffic profiles. Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) capabilities support up to three 16-channel mux/demux units per subrack, unlocking massive fibre efficiency and meeting granular service requirements.

•Modular Service Forwarding: Each subrack supports up to 12 × 10G, 1 × 100G, 1 × 200G and 1 × 400G forwarders, ensuring compatibility with legacy and next-generation links.

•Tbit-Scale Throughput: Aggregated capacity seamlessly expands as additional subracks or wavelength modules are inserted, future-proofing investments against growing metropolitan and long-haul traffic demands.

•Intelligent Bandwidth Allocation: Advanced control plane features-such as dynamic bandwidth grooming-optimize fiber utilization and reduce latency for mission-critical applications.

Carrier-grade reliability is built into every WL6000-CH04 platform:

Redundant Power Architecture: Dual AC/DC power supplies with hot-swappable modules and 1+1 protection ensure uninterrupted operation, even during maintenance.

Efficient Thermal Management: Four high-performance, variable-speed fans maintain optimal operating temperatures under peak load, extending component lifespan and reducing downtime risk.

Centralized Management: A unified NMS slot provides proactive health monitoring, automated alarms and real-time diagnostics to simplify network operations and accelerate fault resolution.

Telecom Core Networks: Handle massive backhaul traffic from mobile base stations and subscriber aggregation points.

Data Center Interconnect (DCI): Link geographically dispersed data centers with low-latency, high-bandwidth optical channels.

5G Transport: Support ultra-reliable, low-latency connections for fronthaul and midhaul segments of next-generation mobile networks.

Long-Haul Optical Links: Bridge metropolitan clusters and national backbone routes with efficient DWDM aggregation.

Designed to meet the most stringent network requirements, the WL6000-CH04 combines granular WDM flexibility, scalable bandwidth and rock-solid reliability in a compact footprint. Whether integrating legacy services, expanding 5G backhaul or linking data centers across continents, this platform delivers a cost-effective, future-ready foundation for any high-capacity optical network.
