Scaling NREN optical networks for the AI-enabled future

Summary

Address growing AI bandwidth demands with 800GE pluggable optics mounted in IP routers
National research and education networks (NRENs) are at the forefront of technology and face tough performance and traffic demands. The next challenge for NRENs is to scale data center bandwidth to support the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) applications.

This webinar explores innovations that make it easy for NRENs to scale their optical transport networks for rising AI bandwidth demands. Tune in to find out how NRENs can meet these demands by using innovations such as 800 Gb/s pluggable optics mounted in IP routers to support IP over DWDM architectures and long-haul optical spans. You'll also learn how the technologies behind these innovations can fit into existing NREN optical networks.
