OPEN OPTICAL NETWORKING SOLUTIONS & DEVICES

We help you get the most out of your fiber network in the new era of open networking

Flexible solutions for all your optical networking needs

Rising bandwidth needs and a rapidly changing world require a more flexible approach to networking. This means simple and flexible ways of increasing capacity without increasing costs. Our open optical networking solutions are designed and proven to meet this need. This is why they are the technology of choice for corporate data centers, metro and regional operator networks, internet content providers, and internet exchanges.

Truly open line systems without any hidden fees are at the heart of our open optical networking offering. Our portfolio also brings you the latest in optics, including both up to 400G Ethernet and up to 32G Fiber Channel (FC). Brocade and Cisco-approved solutions leave nothing to chance for mission-critical SANs.

Cost-effective layer 1 transport solutions and a wide range of passive filters help you scale and expand your network to meet a variety of needs. Our open management software empowers you to easily manage all of this and more with open APIs. Scroll down to learn more about each of our product ranges.
