FS, a trusted provider of ICT products and solutions, announced the launch of its independently developed FTD Series, an ultra high-density WDM platform. The FTD Series features six WDM products and supports up to nine plug-in modules within just 1U of rack space. Designed to meet the growing demand for flexible, scalable, and space-efficient optical transport, the FTD Series is ideal for modern data centers, carrier networks, and enterprise environments.

The evolution of distributed cloud, edge computing, and AI workloads puts network operators under increasing pressure to make more efficient use of rack space and fiber resources. As backbone and metro aggregation nodes scale out to support higher service granularity, operators require modular WDM systems that can consolidate diverse wavelength types, simplify expansion, and reduce the physical footprint.

The FTD Series meets these demands with its various products and compact modular design. It primarily features 22 Mux Demuxes supporting DWDM, CWDM, LANWDM, or OWDM technologies, along with other FWDM filters and CEx WDM modules. Moreover, the FTD Series comprises a high-density 1U chassis that accommodates any combination of these modules—for example, up to nine 4-channel, six 8-channel, or three 16-channel Mux Demux units—delivering a 125% increase in integration density compared to previous platforms, which can meet both current and future capacity requirements.

Key Features of FTD Series:

1. Integration of Six WDM Technologies: Supports DWDM, CWDM, LANWDM, OWDM, FWDM, and CEx WDM technologies for flexible combination.
2. Ultra High-Density Design: Supports up to nine modules in a high-density 1U chassis, maximizing rack space utilization.
3. Reliable Passive Platform: Delivers dependable, maintenance-free operation with zero power or cooling requirements, reducing long-term operational overhead.
4. Plug-and-Play Design: Front-access modular design supports plug-and-play installation, simplifying deployment and reducing installation time.
5. Scalable Expansion: Adds or replaces modules based on network growth or service changes, enabling dynamic scaling without costly infrastructure changes.
6. Wide Range of Applications: Supports 400G/100G/10G/1G Ethernet, SDH/SONET, and Fibre Channel, etc., making it ideal for DCI, enterprise and campus networks, CATV systems and FTTx deployments.

"The FTD Series is a high-density, flexible, and scalable passive WDM platform that delivers the latest generation of wavelength division solutions,” said Bener Peng, the product R&D manager of FS. “Built with top-tier optical components, it emphasizes operational simplicity, compactness, and versatility. The FTD Series is fully compliant with ITU-T optical grid standards and seamlessly interoperates with FS’s optical transport products, as well as third-party equipment. This launch reflects our continuous innovation and commitment to delivering high-performance, future-ready optical transport solutions."

With the launch of the FTD Series, FS further expands its passive WDM solutions to meet the growing demands of modern optical networks. For more information about FTD Series products, please contact US@fs.com or visit FS.com.
