Secure Optical Networks for Financial Firms (pdf)
Financial firms' networks are experiencing exponential traffic growth. Many firms are deploying new applications that are generating enormous amounts of XML traffic—a particularly verbose protocol. New government regulations are driving increased usage of storage systems. And, heightened sensitivity to Business Continuance/Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) has many implementing database mirroring over longer distances. In response to these growing demands, firms must upgrade their networks.

Global 2000 Enterprise Connectivity (pdf)
Large enterprises and institutions typically connect their data centers, sales offices, manufacturing plants and R&D centers using an owned or leased private fiber network or a carrier-provided wavelength service. The resources required for network implementation are expensive and enterprises need to drive as much utilization from these resources as possible. Ciena's CN 4200™ FlexSelect™ Advanced Services Platform is a truly multiservice solution that is transparent to underlying applications and can aggregate multiple disparate service connections onto a single fiber or even a single wavelength.

Ethernet Compression (pdf)
Enterprises IP networks that connect multiple locations across long distances often use Ethernet as the protocol of choice, because it provides high throughput to key data center applications. This demand for inter-data center connectivity continues to grow as enterprises support more remote applications, and they must do so with limited budgets and without allowing IP congestion issues to affect application performance. Ciena’s CN 2000™ Storage Extension Platform is a powerful solution for IP congestion issues at the edge of the data center, because it maximizes WAN efficiency and provides increased throughput, while leveraging existing assets without requiring additional WAN bandwidth.
