WaveLogic Coherent Optics

Ciena’s WaveLogic coherent optics are deployed across our optical and routing and switching products to power 100G to 1.6 Tb/s solutions driving scalability, intelligence, and programmability—critical elements of the Adaptive Network™.

WaveLogic 6

WaveLogic 6 brings the innovation you need to make meaningful impacts in network scale, economics, and power efficiencies. With WaveLogic 6 Extreme, you get ultimate network capacity: 1.6 Tb/s technology and ubiquitous 800G networking. When minimizing power and space are your top requirements, WaveLogic 6 Nano 800G pluggables offer fit-for-purpose power-optimized designs for applications from 10 km to 1,000 km.

WaveLogic 5

WaveLogic 5 Extreme offers programmable 200G-800G line rates to maximize capacity and efficiently transport 400GbE client rates across any distance. WaveLogic 5 Nano introduces 100G-400G coherent pluggables so you can extend WaveLogic benefits to innovative, new applications and drive better user experiences.

WaveLogic Ai

WaveLogic Ai lets you tackle unpredictable bandwidth demands with a single hardware module that can optimize capacity across any path and flexibly move bandwidth where you need it. With tunable 100G-400G, it gives you double the capacity per wavelength across applications versus 100G/200G solutions—which translates into increased network efficiency and reduced cost per bit.
