How Agile Optical Networking Reduces Cost & Complexity in WDM Networks

High-speed optical networks are undergoing a dramatic transformation. With consumer broadband expected to surpass business use of bandwidth within the next four to seven years, the telecommunications industry is facing an extraordinary change.

As we enter the era of the "digital home,", households will require connections of 30 Mb/s to 50 Mb/s and beyond to support new networked services such as IPTV, Video-on-Demand and online gaming. Additionally, personal and mobile communications will be an extension of the IP network, adding to the overall network load.

This white paper discusses how the emergence of the digital home will require a fundamental new approach to networking. Optical infrastructure decisions are long-term, and because many uncertainties still exist with regard to future service mixes, traffic patterns and bandwidth needs, many operators are understandably hesitant.
