ADVA FSP 3000 With ROADM Technology Connects Polish Supercomputing Center to
CERN
Poznan, Poland. April 11, 2017. ADVA Optical Networking today announced that the
Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center (PSNC) has deployed the ADVA FSP
3000 with 100Gbit/s core technology in its PIONIER network. PIONIER, one of
Europe's largest research and education networks, links high-performance
computer centers in five cities across Poland, as well as connecting the country
to the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva. The new 96-
channel 100Gbit/s coherent long-haul solution enables Europe's scientific
community to share enormous data sets and collaborate using advanced high-
bandwidth applications. Installation and maintenance work was conducted by Alma
SA, the Polish systems integrator and long-term ADVA Optical Networking partner.
"Upgrading PIONIER to 100Gbit/s connectivity is a huge boost to research and
education institutions across Europe. This incredibly powerful and dynamic long-
haul network built on the ADVA FSP 3000 will help to accelerate the cycle of
scientific discovery," said Maciej Stroinski, technical director, PSNC. "Now,
research centers including CERN, home to the world's largest and most complex
scientific instruments, can quickly and efficiently transport huge sets of data
to supercomputers where it can be analyzed. With such an enormous increase in
broadband capacity, scientists and academics will be able to further push the
boundaries of what's possible from advances in particle physics to understanding
the origins of our universe."
The new fully redundant GMPLS-based network connects Polish supercomputing
centers in Poznan, Gdansk, Warsaw, Krakow and Wroclaw. It features 96 channels
and has a reach of more than 3,466km without signal regeneration. As well as
ADVA FSP 3000 core transport technology, the solution utilizes ADVA Optical
Networking's colorless, directionless and flexgrid multi-degree ROADMs. These
create remote cross-connections on the optical layer to boost availability and
simplify operations. PIONIER was one of the first national academic networks in
Europe to leverage its own 10Gbit/s dark fiber network. Now, all links in the
meshed infrastructure can transport 100Gbit/s and the modular design of the ADVA
FSP 3000 means the network is ready to scale to 400Gbit/s and beyond in the
future.
"Our technology is helping to propel international collaboration and scientific
exploration. By working closely with PSNC and our partner ALMA SA, we've created
a reliable, dynamic and ultra-fast network that will enable many of the world's
most innovative research teams to realize their technological ambitions,"
commented Ardashes Garabedian, senior sales manager, Eastern Europe and CIS,
ADVA Optical Networking. "Our FSP 3000 combines agile core transport
functionality with massive scalability and superb ease of use. It will be a
vital tool in some of the world's most advanced research projects. Also key are
our directionless, colorless and gridless ROADMs, which will give researchers
the power to quickly and easily set up new services, providing even more freedom
for exploration and discovery."
