Key Initiative to Focus on Developing Open Packet DWDM Technology
Munich, Germany. May 24, 2016. ADVA Optical Networking announced today that it
has joined the Telecom Infra Project (TIP) and plans to support the newly
created Open Optical Packet Transport project group. The new group has been
specifically established to develop an open DWDM system that will help the TIP
community rapidly expand network deployments and meet the fierce growth in
global data demand. ADVA Optical Networking is ideally suited to this challenge.
The company has the largest engineering team in the industry already focused on
developing open optical transport systems. The ADVA FSP 3000 CloudConnect(TM) is
the ultimate example of this. It's the industry's only open data center
interconnect (DCI) technology. Each of the company's engineers will now play a
key role in channeling their experience and knowledge into TIP.
"TIP is one of the most ambitious and creative projects I've ever been involved
with. My role is to bring all of our team's energy and knowledge to the TIP
community through the Open Optical Packet Transport project group," said Niall
Robinson, VP, global business development, ADVA Optical Networking. "Our company
has worked for many years to develop truly open optical transport systems. It's
something that sets us apart from the rest of the industry. We firmly believe
that no one company can meet the challenges of tomorrow's connected world and
that's why we continuously fight against closed systems. The industry should be
an open and collaborative environment - the days of vendor lock-in should be
behind us. That's what's so refreshing about TIP. It's a community that shares
so many of our ideals. I'm excited to see what we'll achieve together."
Although still in its infancy, TIP's ambitions have already resonated throughout
the industry. Its focus on unlocking new efficiencies and innovation in telecom
infrastructure is one shared by ADVA Optical Networking. Both organizations
realize that openness and collaboration are critical to meeting tomorrow's
network demands. Working closely with operators, infrastructure providers and
other members of the telecom ecosystem is something ADVA Optical Networking has
done for many years. Its team is highly skilled in the development of complete
system lifecycles - from design to deployment to network operations. This
comprehensive understanding of the optical transport industry will help ADVA
Optical Networking to steer the TIP community forward and achieve its goals in
the most open and collaborative way possible.
"The networking industry is rapidly evolving, but the pace of innovation and
development needs to be even quicker. What slows the industry down is a lack of
openness and collaboration - an unwillingness to work together," commented
Stephan Rettenberger, VP, marketing and investor relations, ADVA Optical
Networking. "TIP sees the inefficiencies here and is building a community where
openness and collaboration are embedded in its very identity. This is something
that we want to be a part of. Our team has worked hard for many years to ensure
that our technology is open. Our FSP 3000 CloudConnect(TM) is a clear indication
of this. As a key member of the Open Optical Packet Transport project group,
we're uniquely positioned to drive the community forward. We want to ensure that
there are no missed steps here and that the community rapidly develops."
