Pro Optix Launches Industry-First Combo Bi-Directional Transceiver for Simplified 1G to 10G FTTx Network Upgrades
Growing bandwidth demands shouldn’t mean choosing between cost, efficiency, and service quality. Pro Optix’s new Combo Bi-Directional SFP lets service providers scale their infrastructure flexibly, reducing upgrade complexity and costs while creating new revenue opportunities. The transceiver houses two lasers and features advanced dual-wavelength QUAD-OSA technology, allowing providers to support both 1G and 10G
without heavy upfront investment or complex resource planning.
• Minimise service
interruptions: Engineers can upgrade individual customers without impacting the broader network or existing services. • Maintain hardware freedom: Businesses can switch to any standard 10G Bi-Directional SFP replacement without being locked into a single vendor. The Combo Bi-Directional SFP enables providers to scale networks on their terms, delivering faster ROI compared to traditional full network upgrades. It also gives providers the flexibility to upsell clients to 10G services as bandwidth demands grow, creating new revenue streams. Ideal for mixed residential and business environments, the Combo Bi-Directional

services simultaneously with just one switch-side
installation. This frees telecom providers and ISPs from the dilemma of either costly full-network overhauls or time-consuming port-by-port changes during upgrades, allowing them to: • Scale networks cost- efficiently: Service providers can upgrade connections incrementally based on actual customer demand
PacketLight’s PL-8000G 10x800G transponder
PacketLight Networks has announced the launch of the PL-8000G 10 x 800G Transponder, designed to address growing demands for high-capacity, cost- effective optical transport solutions. The PL-8000G supports 10 x 800G transponders, enabling providers to transport a mix of 800GbE, 400GbE, and 100GbE services over high-capacity 800G DWDM wavelengths, optimizing network efficiency. The device integrates EDFA and Optical Switch (OSW), enhancing network resilience by mitigating
fibre attenuation and enabling automatic protection switching in case of fibre failures, necessary in mission- critical applications. Designed for scalability as part of PacketLight’s stackable optical transport solutions, the PL-8000G supports pay-as-you-grow architecture, allowing seamless expansion without
restrictive licensing fees. As optical networks continue to evolve, the modular design of the PL-8000G ensures smooth transition, safeguarding investments for hyperscalers, cloud providers, telecom operators and government entities seeking future-proofed optical transport. The PL-8000G also supports ultra-low-latency, high-
bandwidth GPU cluster interconnectivity, making it ideal for AI/ML applications, cloud-scale DCI, and hyperscale deployments. Additionally, it serves as last mile aggregation for 100/400/800GbE managed services, optimizing transport efficiency.
