Ciena’s 5166 Router is purpose-built for 5G networks that converge 4G/5G fronthaul, midhaul, and backhaul (xHaul) networks onto a common, simpler infrastructure. With support of WaveLogicTM 5 Nano (WL5n), and both hard network slicing (FlexEthernet) and soft network slicing (Segment Routing), the 5166 is the ideal platform to simplify and de-risk the unique 4G to 5G journeys of mobile and wholesale operators.

Features

Temperature-hardened (-40°C to +65°C) for temperature-challenged or space-constrained locations

32 x 1/10/25GbE and 2 x 100/200/400GbE fixed ports

L1/L2/L3 low latency switching

Service isolation using FlexEthernet (FlexE)

Carrier Ethernet, IP routing, SR-MPLS, and SRv6 ready

Hardware-assisted routing and switching OAM scaled to deliver 25GbE services with guaranteed SLA differentiation
