CS6001/2/3/4/5 - G.709 Optical Transport Processor Platform for 10G and 40G Demand for bandwidth-intensive applications such as video-on-demand, music downloads, and telepresence is growing, and network delivery of larger file formats like HD video continues to gain in popularity. Telecom equipment makers are looking for solutions that allow them to deliver these bandwidth-intensive experiences to consumers while keeping their power usage and costs in check. The new Cortina Systems® CS600x Optical Transport Processor & FEC Device (CS600x Transport Processor) enables carriers to deliver high-quality, data-intensive services while reducing operational and capital expenditures by permitting efficient multiplexing and transparent transport of a broad spectrum of 10G class clients including Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and storage over high speed optical transport networks as well as 40G.

The CS600x Transport Processor family offers advanced analog integration, proven optical transport networking, and FEC leadership. It aggregates and transports a broad mixture of 10G Ethernet, 10G class storage, and SONET/SDH clients over 10G or 40G transport networks. Based on cutting-edge technology, the CS600x Transport Processor offers a rich feature set that allows for denser and more flexible line cards for metro and long-haul dense wavelength-division-multiplexing applications, Ethernet switch and router platforms, and submarine ultra long-haul systems. Key features include aggregation of four fully independent synchronous or asynchronous 10Gs tributaries to a 40G signal; super forward error correction ("Super FEC"); transport, mapping, and performance monitoring; and networking support for various client signals. The CS600x Transport Processor family is offered as five different options that are specifically tailored to various 40G or 10G applications.

  • The CS6001 Transport Processor features two 17- lane or 16-lane 40G-class interfaces (SFI-5.1 or 16-lane SFI-4.2), eight four-lane 10G-class interfaces (XAUI or SFI-4.2), and four XFI serial 10G-class interfaces. Additionally, each SFI-5.1 interface can be down-clocked to operate as a 16- bit SFI-4.1 compliant interface. The CS6001 Transport Processor can handle full duplex processing of either a single 40G signal or up to four independent 10G signals. The receiver and transmit ports can be configured independently to monitor (and optionally terminate) OTU3/OC-768, 40GE, and OTU2/OC-192/10 GbE/FC-1200/FC-800 signals.
  • The CS6002 Transport Processor is tailored for 40G Muxponder and Cross connect applications in the DWDM, and P-OTP platforms.
  • The CS6003 Transport Processor is targeted for 4x10G applications in the DWDM, OTN-crossconnect applications.
  • The CS6004 Transport Processor is targeted for 4x10G applications in the Router/Switch market place.
  • The CS6005 Transport Processor is targeted for 2x10G applications.
  • The CS600x Transport Processor is compatible with Cortina devices, such as the Cortina Systems® CS2777, CS1222, CS3487, CS3477, and CS1999, on the client side.
