Cisco NCS2K-200G-CK-C= wave division multiplexer

As a network operator, you need greater capacity to meet ever-increasing bandwidth demands. And you need greater agility and programmability to rapidly respond to an increasingly dynamic network environment. The Cisco® Network Convergence System 2000 (NCS 2000) delivers all this and more by harnessing nLight ROADM, silicon, and multilayer control technologies. The Cisco NCS 2000 200-Gbps Multi-Rate dense wave division multiplexing (DWDM) Line Card uses nLight Silicon to combine multimodulation capability with soft-decision forward error correction to flexibly trade off transmission rate versus reach, with exceptional optical performance.

Product Features and Benefits
The Cisco NCS 2000 200-Gbps Multi-Rate DWDM Line Card is a module for the Cisco NCS 2000 Series, which transports 200, 100, or 50 gigabits per second across metro, regional, long-haul, and ultra-long-haul DWDM optical networks.

The card features a Cisco CPAK™ pluggable client interface, which can be mapped to a single DWDM line interface directly or in combination with optional tributary line cards, providing transponder or muxponder capabilities. It supports a software-configurable coherent modulation scheme over a single optical carrier.
