What to Expect

The webinar on OTN and the emergence of the P-OTP discusses how transport networks worldwide are steadily evolving from a pure SONET/SDH-centric infrastructure to one that better supports packet traffic.

This webinar will:

  • Outline the motivation behind the transport network’s evolution to adopt OTN and describe the architectures of new network elements required, including the Packet Optical Transport Platform (P-OTP);
  • Explore relevant standards that apply to these architectures;
  • Discuss specific requirements and design elements for the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to consider when evaluating technology to implement these architectures;
  • Conclude with an introduction to PMC’s family of OTN products, a chip set of highly integrated components designed to address critical requirements in the next generation Packet Optical Transport Network (P-OTN)
