DECEMBER 7, 2006 -- Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (search for Huawei) this week is exhibiting its new generation end-to-end intelligent WDM/Optical Transport Network (WDM/OTN) series, including the OSN6800 and OSN3800, at the ITU Telecom World 2006 Exhibition in Hong Kong.
The new generation WDM/OTN series combines OTN switching capability with WDM transmission functionality to help network operators optimize network deployment, improve their network return on investment (ROI), speed up the time to market of new services, and confidently meet the new era of convergence where multiple play services are a reality, say Huawei representatives.
The WDM/OTN series has been developed to address the current trend of network transformation in which the demands on bandwidth, quality of service (QoS), and multiple play services are constantly increasing. In this scenario, the bearer network needs more flexible networking ability, higher transmission capacity, and powerful capability for data processing and traffic grooming. For both network operators and equipment vendors, this is the most critical consideration when planning for an all-IP network transformation.
The showcased new generation end-to-end intelligent WDM/OTN series fully demonstrates Huawei's proposition and understanding of operator's concerns, claims the company. The equipment helps transform the conventional WDM links into a real multiple wavelength intelligent optical network.
The Huawei intelligent WDM/OTN series adopts the OTN architecture and supports the next-generation digital transmission hierarchy and optical transport hierarchy. As a result, the transparency and efficiency of service transmission is greatly improved, while large capacity and effective control and management of optical domain are provided, say company representatives.
Through integrated multi-degree reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexers (ROADMs), the series provides an automatic wavelength routing within the entire network. The patented GE ADM and GE MADM, and the powerful L2 data processing ensure data service grooming and transmission. In addition, the series adopts the distributed MPLS/ASON control plane, making the network intelligent so that reliability is improved and the operating expenditure (OPEX) of the bearer network is decreased.
