Product Description
Ribbon Access OTN Switch for Rapid Provisioning of L1 Business Services -Apollo 9901X
The Apollo 9901X changes the equation for provisioning L1 business services. Rather than mapping multiple colored interfaces onto a ring using muxponders, each requiring engineering, it enables supporting all services on a single 100G wavelength. L1 services connect to the 9901X via low-cost gray interfaces, and are added to the ring traffic under software control.
The 9901X works seamlessly with Apollo metro and core OTN switches, under a common management interface, to maximize the OTN switching benefits of rapid provisioning, wavelength grooming, and automated restoration throughout the optical network.
