The MPB’s DCI Optical Line System (OLS) is a complete DWDM line system for data center interconnect applications. It provides all of the optical grooming necessary for transmission of up to 40 DWDM PAM4 channels, covering the range of 5 km to 100 km SMF while maintaining the simplicity of zero-touch provisioning. The unit has been optimized for ease of data center operations based on the contributions of world-leading data center operators and successfully tested with Inphi’s ColorZTM PAM4 QSFP modules
