Huawei has launched a prototype of its multi-service optical transport network running at more than 10 terabits a second, which can be upgraded to manage capacity of over 20 terabits.
Huawei’s president of transport network, Christian Chua said: “We believe that this device will significantly alleviate pressure from our customers’ operations and will help them tackle long-term challenges resulting from the uniformed grooming of multi-services and services with high-levels of traffic.”
The prototype features all-service access, uniform service switching, ultra-large capacity and 400 gigabits per slot supporting the future evolution of optical networks. GTB
