Addressing today's transport needs with an eye on tomorrow

Now it's easy to send voice, video, and data packets over core, regional, and metro networks as you prepare for your future transport needs. The adaptable architecture of CoreStream Agility provides you with add/drop flexibility, simple operation and extended capacity and reach. Most importantly, CoreStream Agility allows you to scale your network up to 1.9 Tb/s at your own pace, in line with your budget and your opportunities. With that kind of flexibility, CoreStream Agility makes it easy to transition your network for maximum value.

CoreStream Agility is an agile Wavelength Division Multiplexing(WDM) solution that enables cost-effective service delivery for core, regional and metro networks.

Designed for service providers requiring scalable capacity, design flexibility and network automation, CoreStream Agility has an open architecture that enables efficient transport of voice, video and data, while lowering the overall cost of deliveringthese service offerings.

Flexible Design
CoreStream Agility uses a common platform that enables application-specific features to be deployed on an as-needed basis to meet the needs of core, regional, and metro networks at the right price. To support multiple applications, the flexible architecture leverages common elements, such as a common suite of optical transceivers, but also provides application-specific elements, such as two types of line amplifiers (one for Ultra Long-Haul (ULH) applications and one for regional applications). Additionally, CoreStream Agility offers a choice of integrated, Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (OADM) elements to deliver services to small, medium, and large intermediate nodes.

Scalable Capacity
CoreStream Agility has a modular WDM architecture that allows incremental, inservice capacity upgrades, so service providers pay only for capacity when needed. System configurations can start as low as a single wavelength with capacity added incrementally up to 192 10G or 80 40G wavelengths for ULH applications and 80 wavelengths for regional applications.

Network Automation
CoreStream Agility is supported by Ciena’s FlexSelect™ OS embedded software, which reduces overall network OPEX and improves network utilization and availability. FlexSelect OS includes automated power management, which automates system operations, delivers enhanced performance monitoring and ensures maximum reliability. The use of software-defined service interfaces further enables a service provider to quickly and easily turn up revenue-generating services.
