The Optical Network Manager features:

Reduced operational complexity – Simple, centralized, network-wide tools for troubleshooting, activation, and administration.

Minimized disruption to existing processes – Ensure all network elements can be deployed within existing OSS environments with common troubleshooting and provisioning platforms combined with standard OSS interfaces.

Centralized software upgrades – Parallel, in-service upgrades allow an 80%+ reduction in project times and costs for network updates. By accelerating the deployment of new network features, service providers can recognize a 10% increase in service velocity value by more quickly offering new service features to customers.

Capacity planning and network engineering – The advanced software allows service providers to accurately plan for equipment requirements based on future service demands forecasts and engineer photonic line solutions with full confidence.

One-screen operations – Support the entire optical portfolio from a single screen, reducing time spent on troubleshooting. This ease of navigation reduces locate/isolate times by 50% and diagnose times by 66%,  ensuring operators can deploy new optical network elements within their existing network management infrastructure. Additionally, operators can confidently deploy new network technologies from Ciena within the existing Optical Network Manager framework.
