…interconnected by DWDM links Figure 2. Converged transport and Ethernet at 100 Gb/s landscape rapidly. Additionally, support for machine protocols, such as Infiniband over the Wide Area Network (WAN), are best suited for 100 Gb/s speeds, potentially driving requirements for 100 Gb/s networking as well. Robust,…

…such as Fibre Channel (FC) and Ethernet. These networks can be adapted to scale to higher capacities and can support emerging protocols such as InfiniBand. To optimize resiliency, performance, and bandwidth, Ciena is committed to the adoption of International Telecommunications Union (ITU) G.709 Optical…
