Optical Module & Device Compatibility Testing
OTSLink provides cross-vendor optical module interoperability and optical transport device compatibility testing — ensuring stable mixed-vendor networks and lowering multi-vendor integration risk.
In real optical transport networks, optical modules, switches, OTN devices and WDM systems from different vendors often run together. Differences in protocol implementation, optical-layer parameters and modulation formats can cause bit errors, sub-par performance or even link failure. OTSLink's compatibility testing service validates multi-vendor interoperability in our in-house lab before shipment — delivering quantified interoperability results and deployment guidance.
Test Coverage
Optical Module Interoperability
Cross-vendor docking of optical modules at 100G / 400G / 800G across switches from different brands — covering SR / LR / ER / ZR and coherent pluggables.
WDM / OTN Multi-Vendor Networking
Joint networking of OTN devices, Mux/Demux and ROADM from different vendors — verifying wavelength planning, optical-layer scheduling and overhead interoperability.
Optical-Layer Parameter Validation
Full measurement of Tx power, Rx sensitivity, OSNR, dispersion tolerance and FEC margin — with link-budget and transmission-margin conclusions.
Protocol & Modulation Consistency
Consistency validation of Ethernet FEC, OTN OTUk overhead and coherent modulation (DP-16QAM / DP-64QAM) for lossless service pass-through.
