Nokia today announced it will demonstrate Coherent Routing at OFC2022 which will highlight the ability of its IP routers to connect directly over coherent wavelengths.
“With the advent of pluggable router-based digital coherent optics, IP-over-DWDM promises to dramatically alter the economics of metro networks. However, adoption beyond point-to-point metro DCI will be limited until it also addresses the wide variety of applications and topologies in service provider networks. Nokia’s Coherent Routing solution does just that with a complete portfolio of routers, optics, line systems and management tools that give network operators everything they need to implement IP-over-DWDM in varied and complex environments.” – Kyle Hollasch, Lead Analyst, Optical and Packet Transport Hardware at Cignal AI
