The foundation of next-gen agile optical networks, adding flexibility, scalability and simplicity to traditionally static and unscalable optical networks.
ECI's WDM/ROADM solutions work in concert with the entire ECI portfolio to provide a complete solution tied together by ECI's 1Net architectural framework
The XDM packet-optical platform, with a field-proven, best-in-class and future-proof 10-degree ROADM brings operators CAPEX and OPEX savings and the following benefits:
Supports
- Mesh topologies with up to 10-degree nodes
- Multi-ring closure with up to 10-degree nodes
- Subtending ring closure with up to 10-degree nodes
- Rings
- Chains
Eliminates
- Regeneration in ring and hub nodes
- Power tilt in regional/long haul networks
- Costly back-to-back connections to external MSPPs and/or Ethernet switches
- Manual reconfiguration when adding wavelength services
Eases planning and operation
- Wavelength provisioning is as simple and quick as for an OC-3/STM-1
- Wavelength assignment/reassignment, no need to predict future traffic flow.
