WaveLogic Ai
Bringing programmable capacity to optical networking
Lay the foundation for the Adaptive Network™
Intelligent. Programmable. Adaptive. Do these characteristics describe your network? In today’s on-demand world, your network needs to adapt to thrive. WaveLogic Ai, the industry’s first programmable 400G, paves the way.
Reduce your transport costs with double the capacity of 100G/200G solutions. Automate your network using real-time performance metrics so it can adapt to today’s increasingly dynamic service requirements. Now you can drive new levels of efficiency using systems intelligence and programmability.
Why WaveLogic Ai?
-
Higher capacity connectivity
Reduce transport costs and satisfy customer demand for high-quality connectivity with the ability to double channel capacity or extend unregenerated reach by three times compared to 100G/200G solutions.
-
Increased programmability
With adjustable line rates from 100G to 400G in 50G increments, you can better match capacity to system margin—all with a single technology that can address any application, from high capacity, short-reach metro to ultra-long-haul submarine.
-
New levels of visibility
With access to real-time link monitoring data, you can now accurately engineer the network for optimal capacity and maximum efficiency.
