Cloud services are placing extraordinary demands on the metro network. Programmability, power efficiency, and density, typical of data center networks are new requirements for the metro network. And, scalability, resiliency and intelligence are even more critical in this time of transition. Ciena brings all these capabilities together in the 8700 Packetwave® Platform.
