800G WaveLogic 5 Extreme

MOTR Module

Ciena’s WaveLogic™ 5 Extreme MOTR (WL5e MOTR) is a

single-carrier, coherent transceiver and service channel
interface capable of transmitting and receiving up to
an industry-leading 800 Gb/s of client payload on a Features and Benefits

providers can mine their existing 6500 installed base to achieve greater capacity
connectivity across any distance
scale and improved footprint, power, and cost efficiencies.

Pay-as-you grow pluggable QSFP28/QSFP-DD client options allow users to

accommodate a mix of high-bandwidth 100GbE, OTU4, and 400GbE connectivity and
elegantly evolve to 400GbE-router architectures as needed. QSFP28 ports support
both 100GbE and OTU4 protocols, and the QSFP-DD port supports both 400GbE and
4x100GbE client options to enable a maximum of 800 Gb/s throughput across the
single-slot interface. High-density aggregation modules can be equipped alongside
the WL5e MOTR that allow for aggregation of lower-speed 1G to 10G services.

WL5e MOTR supports flexible coherent wavelength capacity settings, from

200 to 800 Gb/s in 50 Gb/s steps, enabling users to optimize spectral efficiency
for any network path. Network providers can achieve 800G for shorter-reach
applications, 600G for metro/regional distances, and a minimum of 400G for long-
haul and uncompensated submarine applications. Ready for next-generation router
