PM 404

Eight port transponder for any-rate from 100Mb to 4Gbps

The PM 404 transponder is part of the Ekinops 360 platform and supports any-rate from 100 Mb to 4G. It has eight SFP ports that provide the highest port density on a single card. The eight ports of the PM 404 are split to four pairs of access and line ports creating four WDM transponders on one card. By plugging an access SFP and a CWDM or DWDM SFP, each module can deliver four WDM channels. Up to five modules can be installed in a C200 chassis providing 20 wavelengths in a 2RU shelf.

All ports of the PM 404 support any protocol from 100 Mb to 4Gbps including Fast and Gigabit Ethernet, OC-3/12/48, STM-1/4/16, GbE, 1/2/4G Fibre Channel. It provides full 3R signal regeneration to any protocol within that range.
