Celion Networks Introduces Extended MAN Solution for Enterprises

Posted on: Monday, 7 June 2004, 06:00 CDT

Revolutionary Optical Transport Solution Enables Companies to Deploy 10 Gbps Metropolitan Dark Fiber Networks Over 180km Without Intermediate Amplification or Regeneration

Celion Networks, a private company selling optical networking solutions, today introduces the CN1000-T, the industry's first enterprise-class solution for transporting 10 Gbps wavelengths over extended metro distances without intermediate amplification or regeneration. By avoiding amplification, dispersion compensation, and regeneration at intermediate sites, the solution enables enterprises to deploy dark fiber networks up to 180km (112 miles) apart - without requiring equipment outside their premises. This removes inaccessible points of failure and lowers the cost and complexity of deploying extended metro transport solutions. In addition, the Celion solution has extremely low excess latency for delay-sensitive applications, adding less than 3% to the inherent transmission fiber delay.

"The CN1000-T is the first enterprise-class 10 Gbps solution to support 40 dB of span loss and very low latency," explains Bob Tkach, Celion CTO. "These features, combined with the solution's 100 Gbps of bandwidth, enable enterprises to cost-effectively deploy new applications and significantly expand business continuity capabilities."

Celion Networks provides a breakthrough alternative to the constraints of leased WAN bandwidth: any-distance optical networking for enterprises. Celion solutions give enterprises full control over virtually limitless capacity at dramatically reduced bandwidth costs. Celion and its partners provide full customer solutions at every stage, from network design and dark fiber acquisition through hardware installation, network management and long-term maintenance. Enterprises can now eliminate business practices based on bandwidth rationing, because bandwidth is no longer a limited resource.
