The Cisco ONS 15216 is part of the Cisco ONS 15200 Metropolitan Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) solution, the first Metro DWDM solution to deliver instant wavelengths to buildings,premises, or points of presence (POPs). The Cisco ONS 15216 supercharges wavelength services by supporting up to 32 ITU-grid wavelengths, and provides unprecedented transport flexibility with optical filtering, optical add/drop multiplexing (OADM), optical performance monitoring, and amplification. The Cisco ONS 15216 allows service providers to deliver more services per wavelength and more wavelengths per fiber to achieve radical economic benefits.

Features
