OTN breakthrough to deliver multi-service convergence
The modular architecture of the FONST solutions and performance of the HyPHY family enables FibreHOME’s muxponders and transponders to meet the diverse OTN network deployment requirements worldwide, allowing carriers to deploy power optimised, scaleable OTN networks that address the increasing bandwidth requirements driven by 3G and 4G mobile, carrier Ethernet, IPTV and cloud services.
FiberHome’s FONST Series is an intelligent WDM offering based on OTN technology with scalability up to 3.85TB/s capacity. In conjunction with enhanced switching technology for both optical and electrical layers, the product line will now offer a uniform capability to flexibly aggregate, cross-connect and transport a wide range of protocols from SONET/SDH, Ethernet, Fiber Channel/SAN and video over converged OTN networks.
The HyPHY family delivers high capacity framing, mapping, switching and multiplexing of carrier Ethernet, SAN, OTN, transparent bit services such as video, and SONET/SDH to allow carriers to reduce the number of line cards and network elements, and adapt to a changing service mix without costly replacement of equipment.
The platform provides client-agnostic, rate-agile Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) and 10 Gigabit pluggable (XFP or SFP+) interfaces as well as a set of OTN and Packet system interfaces for networking to a variety of switch fabric architectures and network processors.
