ADTRAN, Inc. ADTN recently announced the launch of a cutting-edge FSP 3000 IP OLS solution to support surging AI-native network demand across industries. The growing proliferation of IP applications such as voice over IP, streaming services, online gaming and IoT devices is reshaping the optical networks. In-depth expertise and specialized skills are required to deploy and optimize the performance of a legacy optical network setup.
Detection of any issue or fault is often very time-consuming in the legacy setup, which leads to lower service reliability. AI applications, distributed computing and cloud adoption are driving demand for simple, scalable and automated optical transport systems. Traditional setups are not well equipped to match these requirements.
Service providers are shifting toward simpler architecture with short, point-to-point links that are easy to deploy and operate. ADTRAN FSP 3000 IP OLS effectively addresses these demands. It brings a simple point-to-point ZR interconnect that immensely reduces complexity and streamlines operations by eliminating the need for extensive specialized technical knowledge.
The solution combines amplification, filtering and real-time fiber, and optical channel monitoring into a compact design and automates essential operational tasks. The FSP 3000 IP OLS supports ZR coherent optics up to 1.6 Tbit/s. It comes with a plug-and-play open line system and allows for smooth upgradation from 400Gbit/s to 800Gbit/s and 1.6Tbit/s. Such scalability enables the service provider to match the growing bandwidth demand by making the network future proof. Moreover, the solution also includes OTDR-based fiber assurance that accelerates fault detection and issue resolution.
Will This Product Launch Drive ADTN’s Share Performance?
