Expanded FSP 3000 CloudConnect(TM) Platform Now Offers Customers Both Complete
and Disaggregated Solutions
Munich, Germany. March 16, 2017. ADVA Optical Networking today publicly launched
a direct detect open optical layer specifically designed for the ICP and CNP
market. The new solution is a key expansion of the ADVA FSP 3000
CloudConnect(TM) platform and offers a compelling alternative for customers who
want to avoid the expense of traditional coherent solutions. The direct detect
technology is available in two distinct formats. It can either be bought as an
Open Line System (OLS) in a disaggregated manner or as a complete solution that
includes the terminal and the line system. One compelling feature of ADVA
Optical Networking's OLS is its SmartAmp(TM) technology that enables direct
detect transmissions to be transported up to 100km. ADVA Optical Networking's
new data center interconnect (DCI) solution has already achieved considerable
customer success and has been shipping since the end of 2016.
"Our FSP 3000 CloudConnect(TM) helped change the DCI market. It transformed
people's expectations. Since its launch, we've continually innovated and driven
forward our vision for the OLS," said Christoph Glingener, CTO, COO, ADVA
Optical Networking. "You only need to look at Ovum's latest DCI market report to
see how our customers and the industry have responded. Our number one position
in the metro DCI space is not something we take for granted. Today's
announcement proves that. Our direct detect optical layer marks the next
evolution of our CloudConnect(TM) platform. What's key here is its flexibility.
We listened to our customers and built choice right into the technology. You
need a complete solution? We have it. You just want the line system? Guess what,
we have that too."
Mark Filer, senior optical network architect, Microsoft Azure Networking,
Microsoft Corp., commented, "With their SmartAmp(TM) solution, ADVA Optical
Networking helps remove complexity from the deployment and operation of
100Gbit/s direct detect DWDM systems, such as Inphi's ColorZ. By incorporating
necessary 'smarts' like automatic gain-provisioning and active chromatic
dispersion compensation in the line system, ADVA Optical Networking benefits
customers with a cost-effective DCI solution that is simple and straightforward
to deploy at cloud scale."
ADVA Optical Networking's direct detect optical layer technology has been
developed jointly with some of the world's largest ICPs and CNPs. Within these
communities, there is a growing demand for a cost-effective DCI approach that
complements more expensive coherent options. By disaggregating the terminal
functions from the line system, customers are able to evolve and optimize each
network layer separately. Not only does this lead to significant savings in
regards to footprint and power, but it also means that wavelengths can be used
with any terminal equipment, such as switch routers or classic transponders. The
level of flexibility and choice is one of the key market values of the ADVA FSP
3000 CloudConnect(TM).
From its inception, the ADVA FSP 3000 CloudConnect(TM) has continuously pushed
the boundaries of open optical architectures, helping to move the industry away
from closed systems and eliminating vendor lock-in. ADVA Optical Networking's
OLS is a clear evolution of this strategy. It features native support for YANG
modeling, NETCONF/RESTCONF protocols and open APIs. This means it can be
abstracted and operated by northbound interfaces, including all industry-
standard SDN controllers. Not only does this create a unified network view, it
also speeds up integration and ultimately reduces operating costs. Such
standardized modeling of network elements is the clear end goal in the drive to
develop fully interoperable and programmable network functions.
ADVA Optical Networking's direct detect open optical layer will be displayed in
multiple demos at OFC 2017 from March 21 until 23.
