Products and TechnologyCapella’s WavePath® products are the first intelligent wavelength selective switches (WSS) with integrated optical channel monitoring (OCM) for use in Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) and Optical Cross Connect (OXC) applications. The WavePath® products deliver the highest level of functional integration in a compact and cost effective subsystem, and support both metro and long haul applications. In addition to operating effectively independent of data transmission rate and format, WavePath products integrate typically discrete functions such as multiplexing, demultiplexing, hitless wavelength reconfiguration (allowing multiple wavelengths to be directed to any output port in any combination), dynamic channel equalization, wavelength and power monitoring, channel blocking, and channel configuration verification. With this unique architecture, Capella’s WSSs offer the only complete feature set for wavelength provisioning, monitoring and protection. Through its patented Closed-Loop Control Systems, WavePath products maintain optimal coupling and ITU alignment over all operating conditions. By automatically compensating for environmental changes, this closed-loop control system ensures reliable operation over the lifetime of the product. WavePath 4500 WavePath 9600 Intellectual Property
