5G – one of the most important topics in the industry – will create an ecosystem for information and communications technologies. Unlike previous 2G, 3G, and 4G networking, 5G upgrades mobile communications technologies and also provides a platform Read more »
Together, Microsemi and China Telecom are collaborating on 5G-ready optical transport solutions. Read more »
During the “telecom bubble” era of the late 1990s early 2000s, there were high hopes and speculation that all-optical networks would quickly become prevalent. Many envisioned a relatively simple backbone networks where client signals were Read more »
The Optical Transport Network (OTN) defined in ITU-T G.709 is the default protocol that underpins today’s DWDM packet optical transport networks. Two generations of OTN have already been widely deployed: OTN1.0, which was based on 10G WDM transport; and OTN2.0, which enabled the transition Read more »
The security of communication lines is a top priority of service providers and data center operators. DIGI OTN processors can enable secured and low-latency WDM transport with the industry’s most flexible and comprehensive OTN payload encryption at wire-speed for protocol-agnostic datacenter interconnect Read more »
Transponders and muxponders are important elements in an optical transport network. Transponders are used to enable point-to-point connections over long distances when the client rate matches the optical wavelength. In cases where the client rates Read more »
100G WDM ports in metro networks are growing rapidly, with a 45% CAGR (according to the 2016 IHS Technology Report on 100G+ Coherent Optical Equipment Ports Market Report). As many of the service rates are 10G and below, this drives a need for OTN switching Read more »
An OTN-switched network core, as shown in the following illustration, offers significant advantages to network operators with multiple customers and service types. It allows traffic to be groomed Read more »
