Infinera (NASDAQ: INFN), a leading provider of digital optical
communications systems, will showcase the DTN-X platform, the
industry's first multi-terabit packet-optical transport solution,
at CableLabs® Winter Conference next week. The conference, open to
CableLabs member companies and approved vendors, takes place March
11-14 at the Philadelphia Marriott in Philadelphia, PA.
At the Winter Conference, Infinera will show how optical
networks based on photonic integration provide the only
cost-effective approach to reducing transport costs per bit today
and as networks scale into the terabit era.
"As cable operators' transport bandwidth requirements grow
annually at a compounded 50-100 percent, networks cannot continue
to scale simply by adding more optical transponders," said Gaylord
Hart, Infinera's Director of CATV Marketing. "Aside from cost, the
required space, power and optical couplings rapidly become
unmanageable. Just as modern computers would not exist today
without large scale photonic integrated circuits, affordable
optical networks will not be possible tomorrow without photonic
integration."
At the CableLabs' demonstration area, Infinera product and
technology experts will describe how photonic integration with
complex modulation reduces total cost of ownership and how PICs
implementing 1 Tb/s super-channels will be able to triple fiber
capacity up to 24 Tb/s on Infinera's DTN-X platform.
Infinera's DTN-X platform is the only optical network solution
built using 500 Gb/s photonic integrated circuits (PICs),
integrating more than 600 optical functions onto a pair of chips
and delivering the world's first 500 Gb/s FlexCoherent
super-channels based on 100 Gb/s channels. Infinera's DTN-X
platform provides cable operators a network solution that scales
for the future, is simple to operate and quick to deploy new
services, and efficiently lowers the total cost of ownership.
Infinera's solutions for cable operators include the Infinera
DTN, a Digital ROADM-based long-haul and metro platform; the
Infinera ATN metro edge platform designed to provide scalable
optical transport for access and commercial service aggregation;
and Infinera's DTN-X platform featuring 500 Gb/s super-channels.
Infinera's solutions are widely deployed by major U.S. MSOs in
national backbone, regional, and metro applications.
