At Smartoptics, openness is at the heart of what we do. SoSmart brings this value to life by offering a management software suite as open as the optical network elements we design.

Built on a modern architecture, SoSmart provides open APIs that offer a high level of flexibility, modularity, openness and integration options.

Having an effective network management solution like SoSmart is essential—not just for optimizing operations but also for ensuring long-term profitability. Keep in mind that operating and management expenses often surpass the initial investment when considering the total lifecycle cost of a communications network.

SoSmart is specifically designed for the management of our DCP products – the DCP-M, DCP-F and our family of ROADMs: DCP-R. We want to ensure that our network management software an exceptional choice for all types of users—whether you are a highly qualified optical specialist or seeking a ready-to-use, plug-and-play solution.

The software suite consists of three modules, all directly accessible from your browser:

SoSmart Planner is a network planning and simulation tool with a modern graphical user interface that is easy to use. It is based on the open-source GNPy module for path simulations.

SoSmart Manager is an application for optical network provisioning along with fault, configuration, administration, performance and security management. It features the same intuitive and easy-to-use graphical user interface as the other SoSmart applications, which is ideal for network oversight.

The SoSmart Controller is an open source SDN controller based on transport PCE. It automates the work of calculating optimal paths and setting up services.

Our mission is to give you the full flexibility to tailor network management to your needs—and to help you expand your network horizons.
