Optical transport systems vendor ECI is using the MPLS+SDN+NFV World Congress in Paris, April 10-14, to launch its new NPT-1300 multiservice packet-optical transport platform to simplify end-to-end metro service delivery. Incorporating carrier-grade assurance and visibility with packet efficiency and multiservice support, the NPT-1300 delivers the scalability and the service agility required to meet increasing traffic demands in the metro, says ECI.
