Overview:
A year ago, Optical Transport Network (OTN) switching was talked about as an element of core packet-optical networks. Now, OTN switching appears to be the central requirement. This webinar explores the trends that have come together to place OTN front and center in next-gen core architectures, including the need to efficiently switch and transport both packet and legacy TDM traffic, requirements to reduce both capex and opex, and the need to efficiently pack 100G line side DWDM links.
