Fujitsu Flashwave Optical Transport Platform
Bringing technology full circle
The Fujitsu Flashwave platform family delivers proven reliability and flexibility across optical, SONET/SDH, and DWDM transport networks.
At PICS Telecom, we supply and support both refurbished and new Fujitsu Flashwave systems, enabling network operators to modernise infrastructure sustainably, reduce costs, and extend asset value.
Understanding the Fujitsu Flashwave Series
The Flashwave family includes a versatile range of transport and access platforms designed to deliver carrier-grade performance across multiple network layers.
Key models include:
- Flashwave 4500 / 4100: High-capacity SONET/SDH and optical transport systems ideal for core and regional networks.
- Flashwave 9500: A flexible multiservice transport and ROADM platform supporting next-gen DWDM architectures and high-capacity Ethernet transport.
- Flashwave 7420 / 7500: Metro and access solutions optimised for compact, power-efficient deployment.
Performance and Scalability
The Fujitsu Flashwave series provides a broad range of capacities and architectures to meet diverse transport requirements:
- Multi-rate support for 2.5G, 10G, 40G, and 100G line rates.
- ROADM functionality for flexible optical path routing and simplified wavelength management.
- Ethernet-over-SONET and packet transport integration for hybrid network evolution.
- Compact, energy-efficient designs for high-density metro applications.
Supporting the Circular Economy
PICS Telecom’s approach to the Fujitsu Flashwave range goes beyond supply — it’s about supporting the circular lifecycle of network assets.
- Extended Lifespan: Tested, warrantied hardware extends the operational value of proven systems.
- Reduced Waste: Refurbished Flashwave equipment prevents functional hardware from entering landfill.
- Responsible Recycling: End-of-life components processed under R2v3 and Valpak Zero Waste to Landfill certifications.
- Sustainable Operations: Reuse and redeployment reduce embodied carbon and align with operator ESG objectives.
Sourcing Flashwave systems through PICS Telecom helps operators achieve financial efficiency and environmental compliance in parallel.
