Ciena 6500 Reconfigurable Line System (RLS)
Compact photonic layer solution
Modular and compact form factor
The 6500 Reconfigurable Line System (RLS) is a compact, simple-to-deploy, photonic layer solution that improves scalability, reduces footprint, and offers more flexibility and programmability. You can quickly react to unpredictable traffic requirements by easily scaling nodal connectivity and wavelength add/drop capacity with its highly dense ROADM and amplifier configurations. And with 6500 RLS, increasing fiber capacity with the L-band is just as easy as lighting the C-band — you get double the fiber capacity with no impact to existing, in-service C-band traffic.
- Automate optical networking through a modern photonic line software architecture
- Access full efficiency benefits of the optical layer with operational simplicity and predictable performance
- Efficiently scale to meet your highest capacity network requirements
- Up to 70% reduced footprint compared to traditional chassis-based systems
- Built-in tools like Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP), network auto-discovery, and real-time network monitoring
- Double your fiber capacity with the simplest upgrade to L-band
