MILPITAS, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/18/13 -- JDSU (NASDAQ: JDSU) (TSX: JDU) today announced that it will highlight solutions from its leading optical communications and communications test and measurement portfolios at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference/National Fiber Optics Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC) at the Anaheim Convention Center from March 19-21, 2013.

Conference attendees are invited to visit JDSU at booth #2101 during the event to see its latest technology offerings and learn about important product updates that include:

•JDSU is now shipping the world's first tunable SFP+ transceiver.

The new tunable SFP+ transceiver from JDSU is the first solution of its kind that is now in volume production for tier 1 network equipment manufacturer customers. It replaces fixed wavelength SFP+ and XFP transceivers, allowing network equipment manufacturers (NEMs) and service providers to harness the benefits of tunability in the smallest form factor and address applications from the data center all the way to metro networks.

JDSU's tunable SFP+ is receiving positive customer feedback including:

•"The tunable SFP+ optical transceiver is an important product for Tellabs," said Mark Pashan, vice president of Optical Transport at Tellabs. "It enables our Tellabs 7100 solution to provide leading performance in 10G DWDM networks with more flexibility and in a compact form factor when compared to previous SFP+ solutions."

•"We are excited to leverage the new tunable SFP+ to increase our 10G network density by two-and-a-half times," said Ron Johnson, director of Product Line Management at Cisco.

•"With the introduction of the tunable SFP+ transceiver, JDSU enables BTI to significantly increase port density while reducing power consumption. This enables us to continue to deliver the industry-leading capacity and performance demanded in today's competitive marketplace," said Robert Keyes, CTO at BTI.



The new tunable SFP+ transceiver also represents the first time that full C-band wavelength tunability has been successfully delivered in such a compact and low-power platform.

•New JDSU TrueFlex® products are now in production.

The industry's first twin 1X20 wavelength selective switch (WSS) and quad optical channel monitor (OCM) are two important elements of the JDSU TrueFlex portfolio. Both products have gained widespread customer acceptance and are entering production as planned this month. These products help NEMs add further agility to their network infrastructures and create next generation or Self Aware Networks for the future.
