ADVA Optical Networking unveils Agile Core Express

Coherent transmission technology, fully integrated into the control plane. Because ADVA Optical Networking’s service manager has full control over the links, carriers can employ their bandwidth pipes for efficiently and intelligently the company says. The control plane provides visibility at the routing layer of the transport layer, which enables the service manager to quickly bring up and/or modify any service between any two locations, ADVA Optical Networking asserts. “Instead, service providers are asking for an agile and scalable approach with fewer sites, which will enable operators to architect networks to increase their profitability in this increasingly competitive market. ADVA Optical Networking is addressing all of these issues.”
