Automate your fiber layer connections and establish remote control


Optical circuit switching is an important technology for enabling the efficient and reliable switch-over of high-speed data across your long-haul fiber network. 


With our optical circuit switching solutions for the fixed access network, you take a step towards a fully Software Defined Network (SDN) by setting up remote monitoring and control of your cross-connects. Eliminating the need for manual changes also reduces the risk of human errors in everyday Moves, Adds, and Changes (MACs). 


Our optical circuit switching solutions automate your processes and operations. In addition, the switched connections offer outstanding grade and quality, making your network reliable with path protection. Our switches significantly reduce power consumption compared to packet-oriented switching. And they seamlessly integrate with leading orchestration and automation software. 


Your advantages


Advantage Image

A Software Defined Network (SDN)

Our solutions are SDN-enabled and configurable over a wide range of protocols and interfaces.

Advantage Image

Speed

Our optical circuit switches provide software control of individual cross-connects within 50ms, or multiple cross-connects within 100ms switching time. 

Advantage Image

Prequalification of lines 

With added measurement devices, our optical circuit switching solutions enable line prequalification. 

Advantage Image

Reduced loss of signal 

By deploying our optical circuit switches, your system can operate at lowest insertion loss as well as high return loss.
