The Challenge
Formerly network traffic was about voice calls carried over circuit-based networks in a predictable tied network connection between pairs of endpoints. Now most network traffic is packet-based, generated by many services and applications in unpredictable traffic patterns, with widely varying and more stringent demands on bandwidth and data transmission performance.
The a rapid increase in the explosion of digital traffic, driven by mobile applications, multimedia services, social media, cloud computing, and VOIP services and now the proliferation of 5G Networks means that demands for ever increasing low-latency capacity has never been greater, and is growing rapidly.
With billions of IoT enabled devices predicted to come online, not just in homes, but within industry, agrochemical, health, automotive, mass transit, and almost every conceivable business serving both B2B and B2C markets, the need for rapid, reliable and failsafe connectivity for backaul and fronthaul to serve localized data demands will rise dramatically.
All of this inevitably expands the need for Optical transport technology, In addition the need for increased capacity in carrier passive optical networks, (XGPON) and a greater need to deploy fibre to the home and premises (FTTX) – Ethernet technology is also evolving, as the speeds attainable over traditional ethernet cable technology are increasing from 10MBPS in 1983, to Gigabit Ethernet in 1998, – With the development of optical interfaces Ethernet can extend its range into carrier systems and can run at 10Gigabits, 100Gigabits and perhaps eventually up to 1 Terabit per second.
Our subject matter experts can instruct or consult on all levels of the technologies which underpin 21st century optical transport networks.
