  2. Optical transport network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transport_network

    OTN was designed to provide higher throughput (currently 400G) than its predecessor SONET/SDH, which stops at 40 Gbit/s, per channel. ITU-T Recommendation G.709 is commonly called Optical Transport Network (OTN) (also called digital wrapper technology or optical channel wrapper). As of December 2009, OTN has standardized the following line rates.

  3. Automatically switched optical network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatically_switched...

    Automatically Switched Optical Network (ASON) is a concept for the evolution of transport networks which allows for dynamic policy-driven control of an optical or SDH network based on signaling between a user and components of the network. [1]

  4. G.709 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.709

    ITU-T Recommendation G.709 Interfaces for the Optical Transport Network (OTN) describes a means of communicating data over an optical network. [1] It is a standardized method for transparent transport of services over optical wavelengths in DWDM systems. It is also known as Optical Transport Hierarchy (OTH) standard.

  5. Open Transport Network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Transport_Network

    Open Transport Network (OTN) is a flexible private communication network based on fiber optic technology, manufactured by OTN Systems. It is a networking technology used in vast, private networks with a great diversity of communication requirements, such as subway systems, pipelines, the mining industry, tunnels and the like ( ref ).

  6. Traffic grooming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_grooming

    Traffic grooming is the process of grouping many small telecommunications flows into larger units, which can be processed as single entities. For example, in a network using both time-division multiplexing (TDM) and wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM), two flows which are destined for a common node can be placed on the same wavelength, allowing them to be dropped by a single optical add ...

  7. IPoDWDM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPoDWDM

    IP over DWDM (IPoDWDM) is a technology used in telecommunications networks to integrate IP routers and network switches in the OTN (Optical Transport Network). A true IPoDWDM solution is implemented only when the IP Routers and Switches support ITU-T G.709. [1]

  8. General communication channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Communication_Channel

    These bytes are used for client end-to-end information and shouldn't be touched by the OTN equipment. In contrast to SONET/SDH where the data communication channel (DCC) has a constant data rate, GCC data rate depends on the OTN line rate. For example, GCC0 data rate in the case of OTU1 is ~333 kbit/s, and for OTU2 its data rate is ~1.3 Mbit/s.

  9. Optical cross-connect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_cross-connect

    Transparent OXCs (optical switching) - Switching optical signals in an all-optical device is the second approach to realize an OXC. Such a switch is often called a transparent OXC or photonic cross-connect (PXC). Specifically, optical signals are demultiplexed, then the demultiplexed wavelengths are switched by optical switch modules. After ...
