Architecting Efficiency Into 100G Optical Transport Networks*

Sponsors: Infinera
Host: Sterling Perrin, Senior Analyst, Heavy Reading
Featured Speakers: Ajay Govil, Director Technology & Architecture, XO Communications and Pravin Mahajan, Director Marketing, Infinera
Date: Tuesday, June 19, 2012
Time: 1 p.m. New York / 6 p.m. London
Overview:
Optical transport network architectures are at a crossroads today as operators face decisions that will affect the efficiency of their network for years to come. Subscriber traffic demand continues to grow while competition amongst carriers intensifies, driving network architects to design for more than just scale. Networks are quickly surmounting 100G with optical super-channels; the new challenge is how to most efficiently utilize the optical capacity, avoiding waste, and thereby minimizing capex and opex. What are the architectural options available today for efficient 100G transport networks that can scale cost-effectively to terabit optical networks?

Join XO Communications, Infinera and Heavy Reading as they share a framework for evaluating the ripple effect architectural decisions have on the efficiency and expense of deploying optical transport networks.
