Infinera introduces XR optics for transport network transformation

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 23 -- Infinera, an innovative networking solutions supplier has introduced XR optics, the industry’s first point-to-multipoint coherent optical subcarrier aggregation technology optimised for hub-and-spoke traffic patterns.

“XR optics addresses a fundamental deficiency in optical communications technology and is expected to have a significant impact on any network that implements an aggregation function,” said founder and chief innovation officer, Dr Dave Welch.

XR optics is engineered to break the inherent limitations of traditional point-to-point optical transmission solutions and paves the way for disruptive network economics and a paradigm shift in transport architectures.

Powered by independently routable Nyquist subcarriers and coherent optical aggregation capabilities, XR optics enable network operators to design more efficient, flexible and cost-effective transport networks optimised for the applications driving network growth.

With coherent subcarrier aggregation capabilities, XR optics technology enables a single high-speed transceiver to simultaneously send and receive independent data streams to, or from numerous low-speed transceivers.

XR optics is designed to be integrated into a variety of form factors, including industry-standard pluggables, from low-speed interfaces with a single subcarrier to high-speed (400G+) interfaces with numerous subcarriers.
