With the ability to scale to Terabit/s switching per slot and flexibly route wavelengths without restriction across any one of 16 directions, the programmable 6500 T-Series configurations enable service providers to efficiently distribute customizable content to their end-users and provide an on-demand, superior customer experience.
As traffic demands continue to grow and become more unpredictable, requirements for next-generation networks are increasing in scope. Transport systems must adapt their capabilities for a web-scale world by enabling more agile, more responsive, and higher-capacity solutions. The newest addition to the 6500 family, Ciena’s T-Series shelf configurations provide the capacity to meet web-scale demand, as well as the intelligence and programmability to adapt to unpredictable service growth.
Ciena’s 6500 Packet-Optical Platform converges packet, Optical Transport Network (OTN), and flexible WaveLogic Photonics capabilities in a single platform, as well as across multiple shelf configurations with a single software stream, helping service providers streamline operations and optimize footprint, power, and capacity to specific site requirements.
