ADVA Adds 8-channel CWDM to FSP 500 Platform

ADVA Optical Networking announced a number of enhancements for its Fiber Service Platform (FSP) 500 product, including an ITU-compliant 8-channel Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) module, a 2.5 Gbps service card, and a Single Fiber Working (SFW) solution. ADVA already offered a 4- channel CWDM module for the FSP 500. The new 2.5 Gbps card is designed to transport SONET/SDH and clear channel STM16/OC-48 services. ADVA said it has shipped approximately 10,000 FSP 500 units since introducing the platform in 2000. Major customers include BellSouth and British Telecom.
