Low-speed OC-3 OLIU (LNW37 and LNW45)

Optical specification

The LNW37 and LNW45 OLIUs use Pluggable Transmission Modules (PTMs), also known as small form-factor plug-ins (SFPs), and is OSP hardened. PTM optics can be "plugged" into the circuit pack as they become needed. Because the optics are pluggable, different ranges are available. The LNW37 and LNW45 can be equipped with OC-3 SR-1, IR-1, LR-1, or CWDM optics. These optics meet standard optical specs per Telcordia ® GR-253-CORE and ITU G.957.

The LNW37 supports 4 ports and the LNW45 supports 8 ports.

The multi-longitudinal-mode/Fabry-Perot (FP) laser is used for short or intermediate-reach transmission. Either a FP or a single-longitudinal-mode/distributed feedback (DFB) laser transmitter is employed in long-reach applications. The PTM optics for the LNW37 and LNW45 supply a 1310 nm, scrambled non-return-to-zero (NRZ) coded signal (155.52 Mb/s).

The LNW37 and LNW45 circuit pack and three OC-3 PTMs are approved for OSP deployments.

For system, transmitter, receiver, and link budget specifications, see OC-3 PTM optical specifications.

Allowed optics for LNW37 and LNW45 packs

The table below lists the PTM optics that may be used in the LNW37 and LNW45 circuit packs.

Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX utilizes Pluggable Transmission Module (PTM) optics on the LNW37 and LNW45 circuit packs. To ensure proper optical performance, mechanical fit, compliance with EMC, and compliance with laser safety standards, the Alcatel-Lucent specified PTM transceivers listed in the table below must be used.

Only the Alcatel-Lucent specified PTM transceivers listed below are compatible with Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX software. If non-Alcatel-Lucent specified PTM transceivers are installed in Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMX, the system will reject that transceiver, and that optical port will become inoperable (until approved parts are installed).
