Enterprise Networking Intelligence in a Box
XKL's engineers build our products from the ground up to be the smartest, fastest, and most maintenance-free optical networking system in the world. Years of R&D is poured into every product ensuring new networking performance benefits and financial returns.
XKL DarkStar’s Optical Networks Product Line XKL’s DarkStar product line is designed to allow enterprises to easily and cost-effectively build private optical networks with massive bandwidth, giving an alternative to the traditional solution of using expensive carrier services. The benefits of this approach include higher reliability, reduced cost and power and more control over IT resources.DarkStar products are designed to require no optical engineering expertise. XKL accomplishes this by integrating most of the components of a complete fiber optics transmission system into a simple 1RU package. This allows DarkStar products to be nearly “plug and play” systems.The foundation of XKL technology is focused on the high performance and high availability requirements of mission critical applications. The DarkStar products are engineered with hot-swappable cooling and power components and are designed to use relatively little power. This increases the range of operating temperatures for the various products and increases the life of critical components — especially lasers and power supplies. Len gives an overview of XKL's DarkStar product line Len Bosack, CEO of XKL, LLC and Cisco systems founder speaks with Susan Smith, Publisher of Lightwave at the ITEXPO conference. Len gives an overview of XKL's DarkStar product line, where he describes how the DXM Optical Transport System is designed to allow enterprises to easily and cost-effectively build private optical networks with massive amounts of bandwidth. He also touches on the problems people are solving by using this equipment. For more information about XKL,LLC please visit: www.xkl.com. Datasheet: DarkStar Overview XKL’s DarkStar products are designed to allow data network engineers to deploy their own optical transmission systems inmetro, regional and long distance networks Datasheet: DXM Optical Networking Systems XKL’s DarkStar Optical Networking Systems product line is a Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) solution that enables massive bandwidth in enterprise optical networking. Operating your own optical network is made easy with DarkStar DXM systems. Datasheet: DBC Optical Combiners DarkStar Band Combiners are available in 4-port and 6-port configurations. These devices combine or add/drop DXM 10-channel bands, 40 total channels per dark fiber pair today. The DBCs and DBCd are both designed to combine up to 60 total channels per dark fiber pair to accommodate future DXM optical transport systems. Datasheet: DRA & DBA Amplifiers Connect DXM optical transport systems with any mix of traffic, such as 1 and 10 gigabit Ethernet, OC192, or fibre channel, separated by up to 2000km. Grow metro networks into regional networks easily and economically. Rest easy with carrier-class redundancy and extreme reliability.
