A new WSS product has been released by Oclaro to improve networking solutions for firms.
Oclaro has announced development of its new XTLS 4x1 50 GHz wavelength selective switch (WSS).
The company stated the release of this product will enable businesses to double the switching capacity of their networking systems. As a result, the product offers a cost-effective and flexible method for improving productivity.
XTLS 4x1 50 GHz WSS adds to the business s family of WSS products and is based on liquid crystal and one-axis MEMS core technologies.
Dr Krishna Bala, executive vice-president of Oclaro s WSS division, commented: "By exploiting a common optical platform we can satisfy our customers requirements for different granularities of WSS at both 50 GHz and 100 GHz spacing."
The firm is based in San Jose, California and specialises in the development of optical and laser components. Following the purchase of Newport Spectra Physics - a high-power laser diodes business - in mid-2009, the company is now one of the largest suppliers of laser diodes and VCSEL lasers in the world.
