Optical+Ethernet
Optical moves
Fiber is the optimum physical medium to transmit large amounts of data over long distances. The bandwidth-over-distance capabilities of fiber by far exceed those of any other medium such as copper or wireless technologies. Fiber-optic transport is therefore the unchallenged foundation for all high-speed networks.
Ethernet rules
In a world that is moving to a packet-based future, Ethernet rules. Ethernet is the dominant data-link protocol for today's networks, supporting a multitude of communication applications. We provide Ethernet-optimized transmission solutions for those fiber- or copper-based lines that are used to provide access for enterprises into a carrier's network. Also, Ethernet is one of the key protocols used to interconnect routers and to carry applications in high-speed optical networks to backhaul access traffic.
