The Cisco Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) pluggables allow enterprise companies and service providers to provide scalable and easy-to-deploy Gigabit Ethernet services in their networks.
Figure 1. Cisco DWDM GBICs
Main features of the Cisco DWDM GBICs:
• Support ITU 100-GHz wavelength grid
• Matches wavelength plan of Cisco 100-GHz ONS product family
• Fixed wavelength GBICs, with 32 different GBIC models
• Hot-swappable input/output device that plugs into Gigabit Ethernet GBIC ports or slots of a Cisco switch or router, linking the port with the network
• Cisco DWDM GBICs can be used and interchanged on a wide variety of Cisco products and can be intermixed in combinations of 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX/LH, or 1000BASE-ZX on a port-by-port basis
PERFORMANCE
• Gigabit Ethernet 1.25-Gbps full-duplex links
• Optical link budget of 28 decibels (db)
PLATFORM SUPPORT
The Cisco DWDM GBICs are supported across a variety of Cisco switches, routers, and optical transport devices. For more details, see the document Cisco DWDM GBIC Compatibility Matrix.
