JULY 7, 2008 -- Optelian (search for Optelian) today announced the expansion of its LightGAIN tunable optical transport portfolio.

The Optelian RGN-10GXT is a multi-rate optical regenerator, tunable over the full C-band of ITU channels. It supports short reach, long and extended reach applications over singlemode and multimode fiber. The client interface provides flexibility through 10- Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable (XFP) optics.

The RGN-10GXT provides 3R operation (reshape, regenerate, and re-time) from 9.95 to 11.3 Gbits/sec. The built-in electronic dispersion compensation (EDC) enables reach performance up to 100 km, say company representatives.

As part of LightGAIN, the unit mounts in any of the family's active shelves and can operate standalone or under network management. To support standalone operation, the unit provides alarm relay contacts and intuitive status and configuration access via a front panel graphic display, touch pad controls, and LEDs.
