Operators previously looking to evolve their transoceanic networks from 10G to 40G are now aggressively deploying 100G-based submarine networks. Moving to 100G is very advantageous, as it provides a significant increase in revenue-generating capacity and postpones indefinitely the need for new and costly submarine cables. Ciena is enabling significant opportunities to increase revenues by offering market-leading 100G-based transatlantic and transpacific submarine network solutions, but is also providing critical tools such as integrated test sets and real-time performance data to proactively and reactively monitor the health of transoceanic services.
