Ekinops introduced its new PM 400FRS04-SF flexible rate line module. This new module triples the capacity of the company’s 200G FlexRate solutions.
The new module supports coherent line interfaces from 100 Gbps to 600 Gbps.
The PM 400FRS04-SF also offers support for single fiber transport. Bi-directional operation over a single fiber strand significantly reduces operational expense by allowing service providers to cut their fiber costs in half.
“The release of our PM 400FRS04-SF just fifteen months after we released our 200G FlexRate solutions is a proud moment for Ekinops,” said François Xavier Ollivier, Chief Operating Officer at Ekinops. “Tripling the line rate and adding functionality to our FlexRate solutions while also eliminating operational complexity is quite an achievement in that kind of timeframe. The market is advancing faster than ever and it is important Ekinops continue to provide the solutions our customers demand.”
The module will be commercially available in the first quarter of 2019.
