  • OverviewThe Alcatel 1686 WM wavelengthdivision multiplexer is part of theAlcatel Optinex catalogue. The 1686 WM is a multi-channeloptical transmission system designedto transmit up to 32 bi-directionalsignals on a pair of fibres.The Alcatel 1686 WM covers a widerange of optical interfaces rangingfrom 4L-16.2 to 32L8-16.2 and32L6-64.2 as defined in G.692 ITU-Tspecification.This system is composed by twoterminal stations and several linestations, the line stations can be Linerepeaters (optical amplifiers) orOADM repeaters (optical add dropmultiplexers). By means of the OpticalMultiplexer/Demultiplexer the systemis able to combine up to 32 opticalsignals and to transmit the resultingaggregate signal on one opticalfibre.The system can accept directconnection of SDH, IP, ATMequipment, but optional wavelengthadapters are also available, when the1686 WM is used in an openenvironment, to increase the capacityof an existing network. The wavelength adapters can add aForward Error Correction code (FEC)to the output signal to improve thesystem performances and toimplement the PerformanceMonitoring of each transmittedchannel.For very long haul transmission,Regenerators can be used to extendthe reach of the system.Typically the system is installed in thetelecommunication network as part ofnational backbones, in linear links

    and in international gateways wherethe amount of traffic requires thetransmission of more than oneoptical signal.Spans length longer than 180 Kmcan be achieved without in lineamplification and up to 700 km canbe achieved without DispersionCompensation.

    The system is fully managed locallyby a standard PC, connected via thecraft terminal F interface, withstandard MS-DOS/Windows basedsoftware. This allows access to theequipment configuration and alarmstatus. Centralised management is possiblethrough the Q interface connection tothe Transmission NetworkManagement. A dedicated channel (Opticalsupervisory channel) is provided tomanage and to communicate withthe distant in line amplifiers and theremote terminal.

  • Equipment structureThe mechanical design of the 1686 WM is compact and modular.The equipment is divided into twoblocks, one for the terminal stationand one for the line station. It can bemounted in the Alcatel S9 rack orAlcatel Optinex rack, which complieswith ETSI standard ETS 300119.

    Terminal stationUp to three 1686 WM shelves can behoused in a single S9 or Optinexequipment rack.

    Fig. 1 shows the mechanical layout ofthe master terminal of the 1686 WM,fig. 2 shows the layout of the optionalwavelength adapter @ 2.5 Gb/s.The master terminal provides themultiplexing and demultiplexingfunctions.It contains: two multiplexing and

    demultiplexing boards to mix upto 16 wavelengths per unit in onedirection and to divide them in theopposite one;

    two optical amplifiers to be usedas booster in one direction and aspreamplifier in the other ;

    an auxiliary board and anequipment controller board formanagement of the equipmentthrough F and Q interfaces andfor the provisioning of auxiliarydata channels;

    an expansion unit to combine thetwo 16 channels signals into the32 wavelengths multiplexed signalin one direction and to dividethem in the opposite one;

    two power supplies.

    The booster amplifier can beremoved for short haul/metroapplications.

    The optional wavelength adaptersubrack is devoted to the adaptationof standard signals to signalscompatible with multi-wavelengthtransmission system.The subrack for 2.5 Gb/s wavelengthadapters contains:

    a serialiser board formanagement of the subrack ;

    one to eight wavelength adapterboards ;

    two power supplies.

    The power units are 1+1 protected.

    In this subrack the Multiclockwavelength adapters can also beinstalled. These units accept at theirinput signals with different bit/ratesranging from 100 Mb/s to 1.25 Gb/s. The subrack for 10 Gb/swavelength adapters contains:

    one to four bi-directionalwavelength adapters boards;

    one modified serialiser for themanagement of the subrack

    three power supplies

    The power units are 2+1 protected.In the standard configuration,

    System descriptionFig. 4 shows the block diagram ofthe 1686 WM.

    Terminal EquipmentThe input signals of the 1686 WMmay be either standard opticalsignals or pre " coloured " signals.In the first case, the use of thewavelength adapter is mandatory. In this unit, the wavelength of theinput signals is shifted to a valuecompliant with multi-wavelengthtransmission.

    The optical signals at the output ofthe wavelength adapters are said tobe "coloured signals". The wavelength adapter optionallyadds a Forward Error Correctioncode to the output signal in order toimprove the transmission quality, theperformances and to provide perchannel Performance Monitoring.

    In the second case, whichcorresponds to STM-16 or to STM-64ADM Alcatel products, the opticalsignals are already coloured by theoptical interfaces of the SDHequipment. So the wavelength adapter is nolonger necessary, which leads to costoptimised solutions and improvedreliability.Other different clients (IP, ATM,....)are supported by the system using thewavelength adapters.The " coloured " signals are sent tothe input of the multiplexers and thento the expansion unit. The composite signal enters anoptical amplifier (booster) to increasethe optical power.

  • At this stage, an extra channel (theoptical supervisory channel) is addedto transport auxiliary data channelsand management information to theremote equipment. The behaviour ofthe optical amplifiers is alwayscontrolled by an extra channel calledsaturation channel. It helps tomaintain the system performancesunchanged whatever the channelcount is. The saturation channel isadded/removed by the Expansionunit. On the receiver side, an opticalamplifier separates the supervisorychannel from the optical signal,which is then amplified. The demultiplexer separates thecomposite signal into individualsignals, which are sent to the receiverof the associated equipment.

    Line EquipmentIn the line equipment, the supervisorychannel is separated from the opticalsignal inside the in-line amplifierboard.The multiplexed signal is thenamplified by an in-line opticalamplifier and added to the opticalsupervisory channel provided by theAux. board. Add and drop of one or morewavelengths is possible with the useof the optical add drop unit. This unit is configurable by software. This means that an operator canremotely decide if a wavelength cango through or must be dropped inthe station.

    SafetyAutomatic laser shut down isimplemented in the system. Thisfeature is compliant with the G.681ITU-T recommendation.

    In case OADM repeaters are installedin a link, only the section where thefailure occurred is affected by theautomatic laser shutdown.
