Agile Core Enables Ultimate Flexibility Through Multi-degree ROADM Technology
Martinsried/Munich, Germany. April 9, 2013. ADVA Optical Networking announced
today that Kabel Deutschland, the largest cable operator in Germany, has
selected its 100G coherent transport for a new nationwide backbone network.
Forming part of ADVA Optical Networking's Agile Core solution, Kabel Deutschland
will deploy 100G technology along with multi-degree, directionless ROADMs.
Consisting of 26 major nodes and more than 50 intermediate sites, this network
includes a fully meshed backbone throughout Germany.
"After a thorough selection process, it became clear which company was the right
fit for us," said Frank Hellemink, vice president network engineering Kabel
Deutschland. "From the innovative technology to the excellent performance of the
100G pilot link trial between Hamburg and Berlin, ADVA Optical Networking has
proven to be the right choice. This future-proof solution is cost-effective and
allows for fully-automated remote configuration supported by a rich service
management implementation. We are very satisfied with the end product."
Multi-degree, directionless ROADM technology provides Kabel Deutschland with the
flexibility required to quickly provision new services. This flexibility is key
to the network's success as some links stretch more than 1,000 kilometers. This
fully-automated 100G network reduces operational costs, planning requirements
and lead times.
"We're building tremendous momentum with our Agile Core solution," said Hartmut
Müller-Leitloff, vice president sales, Central Europe, ADVA Optical Networking.
"It minimizes time-to-revenue and significantly lowers opportunity costs.
Service providers recognize the need to build a core that enables them to seize
new business opportunities while radically lowering operating expenses. There
are three clear building blocks at play here: ROADM technology, a control plane
and 100G transmission technologies. Once these are in place, you have an
automated network that not only provisions new services, but also monitors your
entire network."
The FSP 3000 is a scalable Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) system
specifically designed for large enterprises and service providers that require a
flexible, cost-effective system that will multiplex, transport and protect high-
speed data, storage, voice and video applications over fiber optic networks. The
FSP 3000 complements all IP/MPLS packet engines to deliver efficient multi-layer
next-generation packet transport.
