SASER ADVAntage-Net Consortium Succeeds in Improving DCI Bandwidth Efficiency
Stockholm, Sweden. June 07, 2016. ADVA Optical Networking announced today that
it has been named the winner of the 2016 Celtic-Plus Excellence Award in the
Category of Network Technologies, alongside the other participants in the Safe
and Secure European Routing (SASER) project. SASER's consortium of multinational
partners was recognized at an award ceremony in Stockholm for its contribution
to making communication networks in Europe faster, more secure and more cost-
effective. The SASER ADVAntage-Net sub-project, which was coordinated by ADVA
Optical Networking, was successful in its goal of developing flexible modulation
formats to improve spectral efficiency for data center interconnect (DCI)
transport.
"The sub-project we've been leading, ADVAntage-Net, had one clear goal. That was
to enhance the flexibility of metro and enterprise networks. Through a lot of
close collaboration we've managed to achieve this aim and more," said Michael
Eiselt, director, advanced technology, ADVA Optical Networking. "We've developed
unique transmission technologies to flexibly adapt modulation formats and enable
network operators to trade off capacity and reach. This helps to optimize the
cost per bit of DCI transport in an ever-increasing capacity environment. What's
more, we've been able to secure optical transmission in those networks by adding
encryption technology at the physical layer."
Funded by German, French and Finnish governments, SASER was the Celtic-Plus
research initiative's flagship project. It combined the work of major
telecommunication system vendors and network operators with research institutes
and several European universities. Now, through the Excellence Award for Network
Technologies, Celtic-Plus is recognizing the impressive quantity and quality of
SASER's results and the business importance of SASER for Europe. The ADVAntage-
Net cluster led by ADVA Optical Networking played a key role in improving the
granularity of spectral bandwidths and taking network security to a new level.
The collaborative research has already helped create novel direct detect
technology for secure and cost-effective transmission of data rates as high as
400Gbit/s over distances up to 80km.
"I'm very proud of what our cluster achieved. With the help of our university
and research center partners, we've taken some very significant steps and proved
that it's possible to use the available optical spectrum far more efficiently,"
commented, Stephan Rettenberger, VP, marketing and investor relations, ADVA
Optical Networking. "Our findings will increase the amount of data that can be
transmitted over existing networks as granularities as low as 25GHz can now be
utilized. It's also fantastic that so many students were able to play a major
role in making these breakthroughs. Projects like this help create the next
generation of engineers and I'm pleased to say that we've already taken on
several students from projects like SASER to begin their career at ADVA Optical
Networking."
