Competitive Advantage
with Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM)
Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) is the preferred technology for transporting large volumes of data between sites. This technology significantly enhances bandwidth by enabling multiple data streams to be transmitted simultaneously over a single optical fiber network.
Installing new cabling can be both costly and time-consuming, which is why DWDM networks are essential for maximizing the potential of existing fiber infrastructure. This approach is commonly adopted by carriers and service providers, but it is also beneficial for corporate and governmental organizations seeking to optimize their fiber networks. Despite its advantages, many companies have yet to fully leverage DWDM technology.

Features and Benefits of DWDM Technology
Enhanced Optical Networking
Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) represents a significant advancement in optical networking technology. With compatible switches, you can fully utilize the capacity between sites and deliver high-performance services to your customers. The increased capacity allows multiple channels to be transmitted over a single wavelength, resulting in substantial cost savings in various applications.
Interoperability and Cost Efficiency
One of the key advantages of DWDM is its foundation on a new optical connectivity standard established by the Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF). This standard, the first of its kind since DWDM was introduced, ensures interoperability among systems from different vendors, helping to keep costs manageable.
Support for Disaggregated Optical Networking
DWDM is perfectly suited for disaggregated optical networking, as promoted by major equipment providers like Cisco, Juniper, and Arista. In a disaggregated setup, electro-optical transceivers are directly plugged into switches and routers, utilizing an active optical line system for efficient data transfer. This approach introduces two new form factors for pluggable transceivers: QSFP-DD and OSFP, designed to handle higher power requirements.
Cost Reduction
DWDM technology is particularly advantageous for transmitting data across long distances, whether between states or even across oceans.
Implementing a DWDM system is significantly more cost-effective than laying extensive new fiber networks.
Easy Maintenance
DWDM systems are protocol and bitrate independent, allowing seamless data transmission across multiple wavelengths without interference.
This feature simplifies maintenance and enhances reliability.
Exceptional Value
Offering high bandwidth, long-distance capabilities, security, and protocol independence, DWDM is predominantly used by telecommunications and cable companies within their carrier transport networks.
Harness the power of DWDM technology to optimize your optical networking solutions and achieve greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness in your operations.

Our DWDM Data Center Interconnect (DCI) ring solutions provide reliable, high-capacity connectivity for data centers, enabling efficient data transfer across multiple locations.
Leverage the power of Brocade and Smartoptics solutions for robust network infrastructure that supports high-speed data transmission and seamless integration.
Smartoptics provides CWDM and DWDM connectivity solutions and 4/8/16 Gbps Fibre Channel transceivers certified on all the latest Brocade® Fibre Channel switches, including those running Brocade Fabric OS® (FOS). These simple and cost-effective open-line connectivity solutions enable organizations to transition to modern systems, freeing themselves of the complexity and expense of telecom-grade platforms
The Brocade and Smartoptics Solution
Smartoptics embedded WDM solutions enable long-distance CWDM/DWDM transceivers to be connected directly into Brocade Fibre Channel switches, rather than through a traditional transponderbased DWDM platform. This design uses a single passive optical multiplexer to generate up to 16 Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) or 80 Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) channels through a single pair of fibers that supports distances up to 160 km.
Through this approach, CapEx and OpEx are significantly reduced compared to using active DWDM networking platforms. In addition, the switch does not need to be run in R_RDY mode, so no features
are lost. System capacity is exactly the same, but with far fewer elements at risk of failure. Reduced power, cooling, and space requirements result in the ultimate green data center solution.
Simplified Operations, Reduced Costs
More than ever, companies are planning for disaster recovery scenarios. This often entails distributing data centers across multiple geographic locations in an effort to minimize disruptions should disaster
strike.
Organizations often use dark fiber to connect these locations, and with the growing quantity of data being transferred, many are turning to WDM to maximize the throughput of these dark fiber connections.
In the past, telecom-grade DWDM systems were the go-to solution for data center connectivity. Yet they typically accounted for 50 percent or more of the total site connectivity project cost due to their complexity and significant rack space, power, and cooling requirements. Brocade and Smartoptics now offer organizations an alternative—an innovative embedded WDM solution that meets their disaster recovery requirements while simplifying
Approved Solutions
The combined Brocade and Smartoptics solution is ideal for organizations that need to deploy one or more remote data centers and implement disaster recovery between geographically separate sites. It offers the simplest design and installation solution with no compromise on distance or channel count. As a purely passive solution, it means significant overall reductions in power, noise, and emissions, while simultaneously assuring the utmost reliability. For longer distance connectivity, an intelligent M-Series multiplexer handles all traffic connectivity up to 200 km between sites
