MLSE-Based Equalization Solutions

Taking a Cost-Effective Approach

CoreOptics’ digital Electronic Distortion Equalization (EDE) using Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation (MLSE) is the most cost-effective approach for building flexible and tolerant metro core and regional networks.

Intelligent electronics are the cornerstone of converged DWDM networks, and digital EDE plays a key role. When integrated into receivers and transponders, EDE/MLSE immediately provides benefits to systems houses and network providers by delivering increases in performance, margins and tolerance to impairments. Incurred on a per-wavelength basis, the deployment costs scale in the most beneficial way across a wide range of metro and regional network scenarios since low first-in-cost is a key advantage in today’s economical DWDM networks.
