…reconfigure wavelengths in a dynamic optical network.   A key aspect of colorless networking is its ability to enable "gridless networking." If you’re an optical junkie, you probably know that the standard DWDM "spacing" between optical wavelengths over a fiber is 50-GHz, which results in the standard…

…infrastructures and new ways to design networks. “The development of coherent optics has significantly increased optical performance and reduced the complexity and costs of deploying 40G and 100G data rates in carrier networks,” said Ron Kline, principal analyst, Network Infrastructure at Ovum. &ldquo…

Latency reduction is no longer confined to the data center; it now has everything to do with the miles of conduit carrying fiber optic cables. Dedicated fiber optic lines and DWDM implementations are critical for financial services-focused connectivity firms and optical networking equipment providers. The solution a firm chooses forms the foundation for its entire trading infrastructure. Trading will continue to grow globally-only those with a deep understanding of how their data moves around the world will remain competitive.
