Smartoptics Expands Offering to Regional Optical Networks with New Amplifiers: DCP-F-VG and DCP-F-RA
Oslo, Norway - December 12, 2024 - Smartoptics, a leading provider of optical networking solutions, today announced the launch of its latest amplifiers, the DCP-F-VG Variable Gain Amplifier and the DCP-F-RA Raman Amplifier. These new additions empower network operators to build larger, high-performance networks spanning longer distances, making them ideal for today's bandwidth-intensive applications and future network expansions.
"We are once again expanding our product portfolio making it possible for us to increasingly accommodate the requirements of large networks based on next generation open line systems. With a very cost efficient and flexible offering, we experience strong traction in these segments," said Kent Lidström, CTO of Smartoptics.
The DCP-F-VG and DCP-F-RA amplifiers complement Smartoptics' DCP-R34 ROADM, enabling performance-optimized, high-capacity networks that reach across greater distances. Together, this powerful trio provides network operators with a fully scalable solution to meet dense data demands while laying the groundwork for future, expansive network designs.
The new amplifiers bring advanced capabilities to optical networks, enhancing both performance and reach. The DCP-F-VG offers variable gain control for precise amplification, ensuring signal quality across varying spans with seamless integration into the DCP-2 chassis. The DCP-F-RA Raman Amplifier is specifically designed for long-haul applications, delivering robust amplification that extends transmission distances minimizing the need for additional intermediate amplifiers. Together, these amplifiers enable flexible, cost-effective network expansion for performance-driven, large-scale configurations.
"Our new amplifiers, the DCP-F-VG and DCP-F-RA, represent a significant leap forward in our mission to deliver accessible, high-performance open optical networking," said Lidström. "They're engineered to address the growing demand for scalable, flexible, and robust long-distance networks. Combined with our DCP-R34 ROADM, these products offer a complete toolkit for creating larger, high-capacity networks that support a broader range of applications and deliver the reliability our customers depend on."
