Description
The Ciena WOTRD4M is a high-performance optical transponder module designed for use in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks. Engineered for the 6500 Packet-Optical Platform, this module supports 100G coherent transmission, making it ideal for long-haul and metro network applications. Its compact, pluggable design allows for efficient space utilization within network chassis, while maintaining carrier-grade reliability and signal integrity. The WOTRD4M enables seamless integration into existing infrastructures, supporting advanced modulation formats and forward error correction (FEC) for optimal performance.
This transponder features dual QSFP28 client interfaces and a single 100G line interface, supporting both Ethernet and OTN protocols. With support for tunable wavelengths across the C-band, it allows flexible deployment across a range of optical spans. Built-in performance monitoring and diagnostics tools provide real-time visibility into signal quality and system health. Ideal for network operators seeking cost-effective scalability, the WOTRD4M is a robust solution for expanding bandwidth capacity using pre-owned hardware.
